The hotel is clean and nicely decorated! The staff is friendly and helpful. We like that there is a gym and a game room. And coffee in the lobby in the morning. There was Some miscommunication about restaurant hours, but we also liked that they had “ to go orders”

Perfection

We have booked dozens of hotels through this site and I was absolutely amazed that this was one of the nicest places that we have stayed at in a very long time. The king size rooms are usually so much smaller, but they were the same size as the queen’s And it had a table and it was just nice and new and clean and comfortable. No complaints!

Second Stay

The staff are friendly and helpful. They were very kind to my grandchildren. The room was clean and had plenty of space, which was nice since the weather was bad and we stayed in a good bit. The game room was an extra bonus to help pass the time. We will plan another trip soon.

I really enjoyed the hotel overall. I would definitely stay again, and I highly recommend it. The only thing I did not care for was the sliding bathroom door. It did not allow for much privacy, and it’s not really practical. Besides that, everything was great.
