Room nicely and efficiently designed, and it’s tasteful. Bed is comfortable. Very clean. Avid hotel is IHG brand. I hope it keeps its quality.
When a staff can be welcoming and connect with everyone yet operate the facility as utmost professional staff do, guest like it. And we notice. It may go unthanked much of the time but guests appreciate a well lit red carpet, and we like this place. Its all the standards of a hotel for freshness smelling clean, and soft clean silky sheets. Spotless, immaculate. Keep up the good.
The place is brand new. They were unboxing new breakfast warmers. Smelled fresh and clean. Saw no emotio al support hunds. Again smell was fresh and clean. Top of really sleek single serve Bunn Coffee maker was dusty and needed a wipe. I still love this place. Thumbs up 5X
