Staff was ver friendly during check in. He made recommendations of places to eat. Room was spacious and clean. Walk in shower was large and the water was very hot. Easy access off highway. Very accommodating when I asked to be on first level to help us get luggage in after traveling this past month. Breakfast had several hit and cold items to choose from. Would highly recommend staying at this location.
