An exceptionally pleasant stay all around at a very affordable price. I was especially pleased with the woods and creek view from our room and how quiet it was. Great breakfast! Super comfortable bed with a variety of pillows. I was tempted to snitch the soft pillow. I wish I could buy one just like it. We will definitely stay here again next time we visit family!

Always a wonderful stay. Other than this time being told at the front desk that breakfast lasts until 10. Showing up at 9:20 to get breakfast and rudely being told it’s closed. I was not the only one there were a handful of people who had been told the same thing. Even if it were closing at 9:30 it was still only 9:20, but we were told 10 am at the front desk. The person in chat of breakfast shut off the Orange juice machine e as my 11 year old son was goi g to get some. This was 9:25. We were told rudely once again that breakfast was closed. This was all the day after Christmas by the way. Definitely the worst I have ever been treated by any of your hotels.

It started with the check in. Cherry upgraded us "just because she could", and I felt like a family member. We weren't actually there very long, but every person we encountered had that southern hospitality. We were also very impressed with the breakfast - a step up from most other places. We definitely will return.
