Nice new hotel! Clean, smelled great. The bed was a bit too hard for me, but okay. Smaller room than normal with just an office chair to sit on. Otherwise you had to always be on the bed to watch tv. I recommend it for the price.

The room was clean, beautiful, and very comfortable. It was a very nice stay. The staff was very efficient and friendly. I appreciate the every-other-day cleaning schedule; I normally decline housekeeping during my stay when it is only for a couple of days anyway.

I was very impressed of how clean the room was. the staff when checking in was very polite and friendly. I didn't have to go far for dining and wi-fi was great. I will be back for the stay. Also, I have already recommended others to stay when in town.

Trae was amazing, he changed out our room after we found someone's dirty underwear hanging in the bathroom. He apologized and made it right. After that horrible mishap, it made me notice how the housekeeping was below average and needed work. I cleaned the new room to my standards and hand a great rest of my stay. The breakfast was okay and the staff was friendly for both breakfast and checking out.
First room mishap.

This place was amazing. You walk in and 1st thing is how bright and clean it is, 2nd is the complimentary water/snacks were offered from the awesome/friendly front desk young lady who gave us a pizza recommendation. But let me tell you about the welcome breakfast hostess-every place needs an ANNETTE!! She greeted us and everyone with a smile, offered hugs, positive attitude and just made you feel warm and welcome. They need to clone her! This started our day out on such a high note before we headed home.
