Breakfast was empty with two hours before it was supposed to close. When this brought to their attention, they didn’t seem to care. The lack of concern for sending two younger kids (and their parents) out of the hotel hungry was surprising. So we paid for breakfast twice- once with the room (which we didn’t get) and then put on the road.

The hotel room and front desk staff was great! Didn’t use any of the amenities…. Biggest complaint, I have 2 special needs kids who only eat like pastries and waffles/pancakes type stuff and the breakfast had no pastries, (a pancake maker that didn’t work or whatever), cereal things were empty, everything seemed empty and no one was really trying to address it. Went to breakfast are around 830 and it was supposed to be open until 11 so should have been stocked. Great for a night sleep, but I avoided cheaper hotels for what I thought would be a better experience

very good place to relax, stopped with family for overnight stay on the way, the girl at the reception was very nice and quickly arranged everything, took into account all wishes. Breakfast is delicious and two women always asked if we liked everything and if our children needed anything.

Walls were pretty thin and we could hear the people above us a lot. Property was ok, but thought it was a bit dated in the room amenities. Most hotels have streaming tvs and mini fridges now which this room didn’t. To be honest I didn’t look at that when booking, so my fault but it was disappointing. Some fast food in walking distance but it was kinda isolated but still a quick drive to town. Staff wasn’t very friendly except for the breakfast woman and the housekeeping staff had their doors open by the front area and cussing loudly, glad I didn’t have little kids with me.

Best Beds EVER!

We booked this room online for a quick one night stop during a cross country trip in late June. The area was extremely quiet. We arrived around midnight and the clerk was wide awake and ready for reception. The check in was quick and we received an unexpected upgrade. The room was VERY clean, but it was hot and smelled a little musty. We had full control of the AC, so after about two hours of full 60° push, the room cooled off. The black out curtains were awesome and beds were the best I have ever slept on, so much so, that we over slept. We left before breakfast, so I can’t comment on that, but we will be staying here on our way back. The price of the room was also the best/cheapest for the area and for the quality of the property and the room

The hallway carpet is so gross. Around each door it looks like pepto has been spilled on it. It has a weird pink color. During my stay someone had tried to open my door. Luckily, I had the deadbolt locked to prevent that. About 10 minutes later the front desk called to ask me for my name because there had been a mix-up with room keys. The phone also rang just one ring really late at night and again at 7:30am. It woke me up. One of the worst stays of anywhere I've been.
