Great, clean property overall. Staff was courteous and offered great service. Our room looked like it had been recently remodeled, the upkeep of the property is great compared to other hotels in the area. Only con is I wish they sold cold drinks in the lobby. Overall, it was a great stay and I hope to return next year!
