"Very nice hotel. Close to shopping and restaurants. Great breakfast and loved the Keurig in the room. More hotels need to provide a Keurig in the rooms. Loved the thick fluffy white towels. Staff was extremely friendly and happy to be of service. Nice personal touch by displaying a welcome notice with my name on the TV screen on the room. Also it was a nice touch receiving the bottles of water during check-in."
