Stay was good

Room was fine but housekeeping did not come in and give fresh towels. We were there for two nights, I thought they would at least come in and give new towels. Other than that it was fine.

Average property charging high price. They need a bit of updating for sure and the breakfast was very basic although appreciated. Stained carpet in the elevator left a very bad first impression. Walls are very thin too. Bedding was comfortable and overall rooms were nice. Could use extra reading chair in the room for two. Would not stay more than one or two nights. convenient off the freeway.

What hospitality really means

The purpose of my stay was to be close to a family member in a hospice facility near by. Derrick (hope I spelled his name right) checked me in. He was professional, kind and very caring. I have traveled a bit for my job and have stayed in many 5 star hotels. Derrick outshines them all.
