“ I loved this hotel! I came from Miami , spent three nights and they were fantastic. I was greeted fabulously by the warm, welcoming and charming fellow behind the desk. The room was clean and comfortable. I enjoyed a little breakfast in the morning, and the free parking. -TripAdvisor Member, Menko [more]
