Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
1. Parking was easy and secure. 2. The check in staff on Friday 10/10/25 was couteous and helpful. 3. The breakfast was well cooked on both days and offered many options 4. The room was clean. 5. However, the room had a musty smell probably related to the humidity from the bathroom, which did not have an exhaust vent.
