Such a cute cozy and kind FBO!! The crew and I were treated with promptness and attention to detail. The ambiance is 12/10. Light music playing, delicious cafe with real coffee and a yummy menu. Ann was very kind and obviously experienced and passionate about hospitality. Services 15/10. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Until next time Pentastar! Looking forward to it.

Beautiful waiting area, pleasant staff, nice facility. Didn't actually fly so cannot comment on that, & is also why I didn't give 5 stars. Guessing if I did fly, probs 5 star worthy.
