Clean and staff friendly. Bed mattress was not great for a king size mattress. Needs to be updated, and inside shower floor was chipping due to wear and tear. Otherwise okay to stay for the short time.

The greeting agent (Elisa?spelling) was very friendly and helpful. She got me checked in and reviewed elements of my stay. During my stay Shauna was helpful and friendly by greeting me each day as I passed by. She was helpful when I asked questions. The breakfast was excellent (like what I fixed at home).
