    The woman with dark hair who walks around with a clipboard should NOT be in charge of any of the housekeepers if she is going to talk to them like they are garbage and not listen to what they have to say. She must be on some kind of power trip or something because the housekeepers do NOT deserve that crap.

    Wonderful, recently renovated hotel! It is located right off the highway with easy access to shopping and restaurants. The rooms and halls are very clean.
