NOT worth the hype. Motel is more like it. Similiar to Motel 8. During my stay the power went out about 2 hrs after my arrival. No communication from staff. No one answered the phone. Nor discounted the stay. In short, paid to sit in the dark, went to sleep early and left early. Do not recommend.

Impressed

I was impressed with this hotel as the on site amenities—restaurant, sitting areas, and pool were beyond what I had hoped for. The staff was extremely helpful and overall I would definitely stay here again. They outshined much more expensive/fancy hotels on this trip.

We stopped here in our way back from Florida for an overnight stop. The front desk was les than friendly when I checked in late night. I'm not sure why because I was very friendly but the attendant clearly didn't want to be there. The property is very battered but our room was actually pretty clean and nice. I typically stay at higher end hotels so my opinion may be biased. For the price it was ok for an overnight. You get what you pay for.
