Staff was very nice and helpful, the rooms were clean and the hotel is a no smoke property period so it’s so much nicer than usual. Smells clean as well. Large variety for breakfast, biscuits and gravy, sausage and bacon. Eggs, roasted potatoes with ketchup. Large variety of grab and go breakfast items as well. Would LOVE to stay here again
