Customer service and all staff were very friendly and accommodating. The room was clean and comfortable. Having a kitchen in the room was very enjoyable and saved us some money versus going out for breakfast. Only complaint is that the entry door from the rear parking lot does not work properly and we had to walk around to the side to use our key card for entry.
