Ms. Kay was the most sweetest lady ever during my stay! She is a very great manager out of all areas I stayed in she made sure my stay was great. She kept me informed on everything I asked about and Ms. Donna was nice as well when I let her know I was leaving and done moving out my room. Everybody was nice except the person who was security. If I ever needed somewhere to go again I would come back here if Ms. Kay and Donna are still in charge. I want to thank you for making sure everything was up to part during my stay and very understanding as well.

My check-in was quick & easy. The manager, Tommie, was incredibly friendly & accommodating (as well as Bryce & their maintenance guy). The hotel is in a Great Area with a lot of options for fast food & shopping all within walking distance. It was also quiet & safe at the property and the rooms were very spacious & clean (great housekeepers) ***I had one of the newly renovated rooms*** ⭐’s X 1⃣0⃣
