Super cute place! Colorful and CLEAN rooms. Also pretty quiet, felt safe, which is a priority for me. I will say, you could hear people walking by the room. So, it wasn’t fully sound proof, but overall a great place to stay!

I recommend staying here. The new renovations are modern, colorful and fun. The room was clean and cool. The Continental breakfast was just right to start the day. Nothing crazy but just right. Only thing I would like is an area to sit outside. Maybe thats part of the remodel.

This hotel was a great choice for our family trip. It appears to be newly renovated, and the facilities are in great condition. We were especially impressed with the comfortable beds and the excellent shower. The breakfast was decent, although we wished there were a few more items to choose from. Still, we really liked the hotel and would recommend it.

Was ok but I got sick

The staff was very friendly, I love how helpful and sweet they were. The room smelled a bit musky, and after we checked out my throat was starting to hurt and feeling sick. The breakfast was subpar just sweet breads, coffee and cereal.

We stayed in the "old" building. The room and facilities were very nice/excellent. I would recommend it to any traveler. Two items I would "down rate" on; there was no ice machine, always had to go to the main building to purchase bags when needed, and there was no closet in the room. Need to add a wardrobe.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Arrived early with 2 cars in the entire parking lot and was told I’d have to pay $25/hr that I was early, mind you the entire night cost $70. I was out in a room that was directly across from the main lobby/breakfast area. All night long I heard noise and then promptly at 5:25 AM was woken up to the staff setting up the breakfast area on the other side of my door. Unsure of whether it was a staff member or another guest, but from 5:45 AM-7 AM, they had a very loud conversation on speakerphone with a friend right outside my door. I was unable to get any sleep prior to all of this because of how loud the AC unit was, it sounded like a helicopter. I also attempted to go to the “new bar” that had been open for 2 full months and after leaving noticed my card was charged $50 when my bill was $12.72 with tip. I went back later and what questioned the bartender who stated he forgot to inform me my drink would have a $50 hold. This is in addition to the $75 hold from the hotel right downstairs. Overall, terrible experience and on my birthday of all days.
