The staff and manager are courteous, polite, accomodating and very pleasant. I am a frequent flier here. The breakfast makes a difference in the stay. Waking up, eating something, then step out into the town. The prices are reasonable as well if you come at the right time.

The hotel is excellent! Very clean and updated. The breakfast is delicious and something different everyday. Plenty of parking in the back. Walking distance to restaurants and a healthy grocery store next door with various ready to eat meals. Pillows and bed are comfy with a nice couch to lounge on. Nice big pool. Overall I’d love to give them 6 stars if I can. I will stay here again when I’m in town.
