Your staff treated him so kindly, as if he were a little man! The facilities were beautiful and he felt like he was staying in a mansion.

"This was our second stay at this property. We find this property to be a very good value. It has plentiful, free parking. Feels very safe. Easy check in, staff friendly, clean, and very comfortable beds. The air conditioning worked well. This is an older property, with an older, somewhat stained tub, however it was clean, and provided nice, hot showers. The liquid hand soap was nice, and had a clean scent. The sink/mirror area is outside of the restroom which is nice when someone else is in the restroom, or showering. It could use brighter lighting for applying makeup, but again, itโ€™s fine for the price. There is a gym with nice looking equipment, which we did not use. There are a couple of restaurants within close walking distance. There is a free breakfast buffet, that offered scrambled eggs, sausage, toast, yogurt, fruit, waffle makers, juice, and coffee. On a previous stay there were biscuits and gravy, which was very good. Overall, this is a nice property, which more than met our needs, at a very reasonable price. As we travel through the area, this will be our regular stop."
