"Staff were personable and helpful, real hospitality. The hotel grounds and interior is well maintained and clean. They provide the 5:30p kick back, that is a nice money saver for dinner if you are on a budget. One of the things I notice, being in professional settings for quality, is whether the establishment has clean vents. This tells me that the cleaning process goes from top to bottom. They have very clean vents ;) 10/10 from me."
