One elevator was out and the other scared me a couple of times, but it could have been a placebo of the other not in service. Our room was nice and cold. The bed was comfy. The towels and toiletries were great. We had a cart to help with our luggage which was awesome. Breakfast was also great and opened early. 10/10, would recommend

One night stay, served its purpose

Service was friendly and attentive. Lobby was clean and bright. Pool needed cleaning. Room was comfortable but smelled of mildew. The hotel is located very close to the highway but noise couldn’t be heard indoors.

Jayson was super friendly and professional. Every interaction with him was enjoyable. My room was on the fourth floor, which was clean, but the hallway was very stale and musty smelling. The breakfast area was clean and well maintained but hot food was not available.
