The room was really nice and spacious.
AC/Heat worked well and was quiet.
But the absolute best thing about this hotel, is its staff.
**Especially Shay & Raven!
I was in the mood for some pretzels, and unfortunately the they did not have any in stock 😢
The next day Shay surprised me with a bag of pretzels!
How unexpectedly awesome & cool 😎 is that!
Aside from being professional and knowledgeable, they were just great to meet and talk with.
Thank You Girls, your the best and IHG is lucky to have you

I cannot say enough good things about the people who work here and the hotel accommodations. We arrived at 3 in the morning after a long day of traveling. Casay greeted us at the desk. He was so kind and had a way about him that made you feel welcome. He generously gave us a late check out which we greatly appreciated.
The room was really clean and the bed was comfortable. We slept well and missed breakfast. My boyfriend asked at the front desk if we could get some cereal. Simone and Alicia were so nice. They gave us bagels, cream cheese and butter, yogurts and fresh fruit. This was an unexpected surprise.
We wish more hotels hired kind people like these three. They are amazing. We will be back again for certain on our travels here. We would give them all a 10 if we could.
