We checked in a little early but I didn’t realize the first floor was an old motel and we had a glass door to the outside parking lot in our room. The bathroom was tiny and the chairs were stained. The curtains on the windows were ripped and the room had a well water type smell.

Absolutely loved the friendly staff. Perfect stay, comfortable bed, quiet hallways. Only thing I don't like (and this is for most hotels too) is the TV remote! So many buttons, nothing is clear, no instructions. Just want to be able to watch the news.

I had booked what i thought was a handicapped-accessible room, due to the fact that my mother who was staying with me uses a walker. The bathroom was so small that she had to actually back in in order tonuse it safely, and couldn't be afforded any privacy due to not being able to close the door....not at all what I would consider an "accessible" room

Never again

Hotel.com showed us a pool and hottub, which it didn’t have. We brought my girls here for their birthday because we went to the splash park. They couldn’t find us a room until close to 6 pm, we were eating dinner in the lobby. The front desk people were rude and couldn’t give any information besides “idk when it will be done”. I wanted a refund and then magically they had a room ready. Since this was for a birthday the girls were most upset they couldn’t go swimming after the splash park. We cancelled best western to go here and it was more expensive, and a very big mistake. Things inside are outdated and dirty, the shampoo and conditioner didn’t even wash 2 people’s hair if it was used. Just all around dissapointed with a $200 hotel room that was not even at all worth it and a disappointment for my daughter day to remember
