Arrived and the front desk was very busy trying to accommodate multiple guests checking in. Took about half an hour to check in but the staff was very friendly and helpful. It had just gotten dark and the parking lot lights were not on so it made the location look a little unsafe. Once they got the lights on it was much better. Asked for a ground floor room and was given one that made it great for us to walk our dog. Room was clean and comfortable. Having a kitchen was a good extra.

The exterior was well manicured and clean. Guest services were very welcoming and knowledgeable. Any issues was addressed IMMEDIATELY! They provided local information. The room was excellent. It felt like home.
