we will absolutely be back , it's a great location.
Pros:

very clean, staff was very pleasant easy to check in.,we had all we needed at hand.we will be back for sure.

Cons:

I had a hard time sleeping the bed pillow when you put your head on it, your head sunk into the bed, I showered and stepped in the tub it was so slippery I had to hold on, maybe something on the bottom for non slip. Breakfast basically had many choices. Im not crazy about powered eggs or oatmeal was paste. All and all It was very nice, pleasant and very clean, That's A from my husband and I.

Great Stay!
Pros:

The room and the staff were great!

Cons:

It was fixed, but the original booking was entered as a "mini-suite" despite not being listed as such. We were grateful it could be upgraded to what we thought we were getting originally, but the whole issue was kind of odd.
