"Staff was very friendly and courteous"

Jesse, Bill and Hightower were very friendly and helpful. My family and I were in town for a funeral and they assisted us with all questions and gave excellent customer service. This made our stay much easier given our reason for being in town. Room was clean and neat. Vending machines and restaurant was easily accessible.
