The check in process w As a little delayed. The room wasn’t ready when we arrived. But a few minutes later we were able to do it. The room was spacious and clean. The breakfast was really good. The bed comfortable (and I’m a tall guy). It’s at walking distance of the fairgrounds. The check out was really fast. Definitely will back here.

Diane is a rockstar

My stay was wonderful, it was a surprise trip for my son to see a concert in which Diane who was at the front desk helped surprise my son to let him know we are taking to the concert. She was also very friendly very attentive during our stay it was a wonderful friendly face that will have our family returning. The breakfast was delicious and the room was wonderful it was a beautiful hotel stay.
