It was clean, had friendly staff, great Free Sunday breakfast, (other days were good breakfasts) convenient and quiet…I would like to have had better lighting in the parking area. I was alone with my 5 year old grandson and felt a little uneasy going to and from car at night. Overall I would give it 4 out of 5 stars!⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
