The hotel did renovations, it’s a nice bandaid on a hotel that needs more. The hotel must be understaffed, and cleanliness is not a priority. The floors are dirty. My room needed a good surface clean. The amount of dust on the alarm clock/lamp on the nightstand was crazy. You must bring down dirty towels to front desk for exchange of new towels ( sometimes they don’t have any clean towels and need to come back) Housekeeping is not available daily.

Nice hotel.
This hotel used to be the Hyatt a while ago. Initially I had trouble finding it because the owners had changed. However, I’m glad that the hotel is stil in good condit under different management. The housekeeping staff was extremely nice and eager to help, they honestly don’t get enough credit for what they do!

What I liked or found unique about the property: 1. Spacious Rooms: The room was very large, providing plenty of space to relax and move around. 2. Comfortable Accommodations: The bed and furniture were very comfortable, contributing to a restful stay. 3. Full Kitchen: The room included a full kitchen, which is a great convenience for preparing meals and snacks, especially for longer stays. 4. Home-Like Feel: The combination of spaciousness and kitchen facilities made the stay feel more like being at home rather than a typical hotel.

Clean lobby area. Friendy staff. I liked especially Doug. Walk ways to room are clean. Coffee /tea availabe. Penty of parking. Rooms are clean, all appliances are functional. There wont be room cleaning each day, front desk told me to bring your lines for exchange if you need. Room carpet is bit sticky, if you walk bare foot. Has decent pool and Gazibo/bbq area for guests. Convenient to all shopping and restaurants. Since room is studio, so just bring your groceries. I would stay there again, if possible. Best value compared to others in that price range.

Hotel and Management were excellent!
My son and I were there for his baseball tournament and our stay was great.. The hotel room was very roomy and everything was nice and clean.. We got through playing early and the manager let us check out early without any penalties of having to pay for the extra days I originally blocked off.. That was very much appreciated.. We will def be staying here again..
