The staff was friendly and helpful and the hotel had good amenities, but I didn't use many of them. I had the pool in mind when I booked it, but it was out of service when I got there (should have read earlier reviews). The breakfast was normal hotel food, not great but adequate. Coffee was decent. The location was great, near the highway but very quiet. I would definitely stay there again but there's a few things people should know. Most rooms don't connect to the lobby; you have to go through the courtyard to get there. I didn't mind it, but it wasn't raining and I didn't have kids to worry about. There are no ice machines, but there was fresh bags of ice at the front desk (even better). There was no phone in my room (weird but front desk said there should have been one). It's pet friendly and the few pets I met were friendly. And housekeeping service is only if you stay a week or more, but fresh linens and towels are available at the front desk (this didn't bother me either). For the price, it was a great value, very spacious, clean, good location, nice people. It had all I wanted except the pool (but hey, things happen and you roll with it).
