This was one of the cleanest and most comfortable hotels we have stayed at in this area. Pros: clean, breathable bedding; nice staff; generally updated. Cons: sink in room wouldn’t drain, bed pillows were oddly small. We would stay here again if passing through the area.

The hotel was beautiful, clean, and smelled great. We didn’t eat breakfast as we were out most of the stay. The rooms were clean. I like that we can control the room temperature. It did feel a bit muggy in the room at times. But overall, our stay was great. I will book again when I do come back.

1st-assigned a room, it was occupied 2nd-got new room. Staff was confused and woke us after midnight LOUDLY and wondered why the first room THEY assigned us was occupied. ?. 3rd-staff had no idea who was occupying first assigned room. 4th- we did get 2 free brekky coupons. We had to hunt down the cook, the beverages, and our order. The same loud staff that woke us after midnight struggled to remember an orange juice order for over 44 minutes. 5=poorly managed and ignorant staff made our stay terrible
