This place possesses an amazing value, with outstanding customer service. Each and every person that we encountered at the front desk was respectful, courteous, and informative.

The hotel could be a first class operation, but apparently they really do... More

The bathroom looked to have been completely renovated. I think the little restaurant was great...good Mexican food. I feel if they would change the room decor and add air... More
