Customer service was excellent. The front desk staff was friendly and helpful and the staff taking care of the breakfast buffet did a great job. I didn't have any interaction with the maid service staff, but the room was clean and quiet and had everything we needed, and the bed was comfortable. Good parking, convenient location for walking.
