Staff was friendly. One major problem in getting to the hotel was that the GPS coordinates were not correct and Google Maps was taking us to another location. It took us 30 minutes to find the hotel. While at the front desk someone called having the same problem with GPS . This can be easily fixed by your IT department. After traveling some distance and you tired you shouldn’t have a hassle finding the hotel.

Nice place and very friendly staff. There were a few things that were in disrepair - our thermostat didn’t work. Floors were sticky in many areas. But aside from sticky floors, the rooms were generally clean and comfortable. The breakfast was excellent- lots of good choices and hot food options. Aside from a few flaws, it was a good place for the price and I would come back there.
