"Can't say enough about the absolutely fantastic staff at this location. From the moment that we checked in with Jennifer and we told her that we were celebrating my sister's birthday, we were treated like VIPs. The front desk staff all personalized a birthday card for her and gave her gifts. Any time we had a question about the location of something, someone offered to show us. I've never met such friendly and accommodating staff. Kudos to all who work here. As for the room, it was spacious...
