To qualify for this award, the hotel received “higher than average guest survey scores, as well as two years of perfect quality evaluation scores.” Kristen Karl, General Manager of the hotel, tells Real Travel about a superior staff member named Michael, who works at the front desk. Michael befriended an elderly couple who visit this hotel on a quarterly basis. Every time the couple stays at the hotel, Michael is sure to deliver glasses of water to the couple’s room, set the radio to their favorite station, and set the thermostat to a comfortable temperature. By going above and beyond his duties, Michael serves as an excellent example as to why this hotel has been so highly recommended. Real Travelers can attest to this great service, “We were arriving late and wouldn’t arrive until 11pm, but the hotel was happy to accommodate our late check-in request. After getting to the hotel, which was easily spotted by the road, we were checked-in [by] a friendly hotel staff member.”
