We stayed for four days three nights and loved this location. Staff was wonderful, friendly and service of our room was very well done. It was nice after being out for the day to return to fresh made bed and clean room even with our nightly stay over. We were pleasantly surprised with the whole stay! We will stay again when we return to visit family again
