We had an amazing stay at this hotel! The staff and especially Kyle went above and beyond to make us feel welcome—everyone was so friendly and helpful from check-in to check-out. The amenities really stood out: the pool was clean and refreshing, the BBQ area was perfect for a relaxing evening, and we loved that there was both a basketball court and TVs to enjoy downtime/football games 🏈. Everything was well-maintained, and the atmosphere made it easy to feel right at home. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for excellent service and great amenities! We will be back for sure 👍

Mostly really good

The good, hotel staff professional, friendly, & helpful. Rooms are clean, plenty of luggage carts available. The bad, reception area needs to draw more attention to guests registering, parking spaces have many compact spaces, mostly full size sedans and larger in the lot. breakfast layout leads to groups of people standing around, no flow, and sitting area over crowded.
