It wasn’t the best hotel that I’ve stayed at but it was affordable just sleeping on a road trip. The beds were a bit uncomfortable and the shower looked dirty. The check in process was fine but the guy kept winking at me and my sister in law, it made us a bit uncomfortable traveling alone with just her 7 mo old. I would not go again personally.

I had a great stay at the Cottonwood Inn and Conference Center! The room was very comfortable, everything felt new and well-maintained, and the entire place was spotless. The atmosphere was relaxing, and the staff were friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

Hotel is clean. Staff is courteous. Check-in was easy and quick. Rooms are nice. Bathrooms are clean. The only real issue is that you hear everyone around you - people walking in the laminate floors on the floor above you, doors closing in the hallway, people in their bathrooms next door to you. Not sure how much insulation is between rooms and floors. We have stayed here twice now; two different times. Same type of sounds.
