My son was in an accident and this hotel was near his hospital. The counter staff were kind, understanding and Soo helpful when I had to extend my stay. They accommodated my Mastiff puppy so well. I would recommend to anyone.

Thought the hotel was super nice and clean until my entire family and I woke up with itchy bug bites all over our faces & bodies. They had bed bugs and when we called it took them days to call us back and confirm we got it from them. Had to have an exterminator come and it was very traumatizing.
