We were in the area to visit family and we chose this hotel because it had bigger rooms. It was a bonus that we had a room off the patio area so we could sit outside to wait for others, read the news or enjoy a coffee. Was also happy there were water and coffe/tea station in the lobby so you could fill up before heading out.

Staff was great, we had an issue in our room with the sofa bed, i calked the front desk and they sent someone up im assuming the maintenance man who was great, he helped and made things right. I hope the property looks at the sofa beds better and get rid of mattresses when theyre dirty.
