The check-in staff was very friendly and the room was clean. The only issue is the electrical plugin behind the TV did not work. I really wanted to see morning local weather before heading out. Nice TV, just didn’t work.

The breakfast was very limited. The coffee creamer in the room was hard as a rock,you could tell that it had been there for a while. The room was clean but the sheets and pillow cases had stains on them. The rooms need to be updated . The woman at the front desk was very nice and friendly and i appreciated her asking about our stay.
