"This is a great property. Wonderfully clean. Our ONLY recommendation would be to give the young woman working check in some help at 6PM. It's not hard to anticipate a rush to check in at that hour and she was hustling the best she could be there were two stations and only she covering with a line. That did not deter from a very good stay at a really good property. Would highly recommend."
