This property was less than a year old. Everything was new looking and very clean. The entire staff was extremely nice and helpful with anything you asked. The free breakfast was good and well stocked. ( I liked the cinnamon rolls :) We would definitely stay here again. Well-lit, quiet, nice pool with towels provided. A little away from dining options (1 to 5 miles), but the peaceful stay was worth it.

The hotel was very nice and very clean. The rooms were spacious and clean the air conditioner worked great. I felt that the hotel was fairly new because it was so clean. Great continental breakfast available, the pool area was very clean and easily accessible. It was very close to the airport, only took us about 12 minutes to get there.

Everything was great. Breakfast could’ve been longer and the tv wasn’t accessible to watch whatever during those hours. I turned on worship music but I do professionally get that religion and politics are not everyone’s cup of tea.
