I really very nice hotel. The room felt a little less clean than it should. The floor was a bit dirty and I found a random magazine of the far side of the couch. The staff was very friendly, accommodating, and flexible. Nice indoor pool. Fire out and grills outside including a blackstone griddle. Nice breakfast for continental breakfast hotel standards. Would stay here again.

Solo Concert Trip

I stayed here on a solo trip to see a concert at Star Lake Pavilion. I’m always worried about my safety when traveling alone and this place made me feel nothing but safe! It’s about 15 minutes from the venue, gas station nearby, and three food places so close you don’t have to get in the car. I really liked the phone charging station, tv, shower, and the coffee available in my room. The staff was really nice and checked in with me during my stay via text. I do plan to stay here whenever I come back to see more shows in the future in the area.
