"Clean and spacious"

My hotel room and bathroom were very clean. The breakfasts were delicious and generous. Our waitress was very friendly and personable. I liked the large area between the lobby and breakfast area to meet friends and family. I appreciated that the front desk accommodated my sister and I with “next door” rooms on the first floor when we checked in. Best hotel experience to date.
