We had a fantastic experience at this property. Everything was spotless – the cleanliness truly stood out from the moment I walked in. The rooms were not only clean but also incredibly comfortable, offering a perfect space to relax time with family . The spa was a peaceful retreat, perfect for unwinding, and the gym was fairly -equipped .

Don’t let the name fool you — it’s a motel. It’s marketed well and the photos show rooms in excellent condition. In reality, our room was quite dated and pretty dirty. The carpeted floors at the edges were frayed and the bathroom shower had grime caked into the shower head and in the corners. I would not recommend it.
