Very nice spacious room, very clean. Only issue unable to shower due to shower knob was broken, reported to the front desk they said sorry unable to fix as they didn’t have a maintenance person available that day, on a Wed? Other than no shower the room was great.

Good hotel.

The hotel was fine. However, it was difficult to find from the highway/road. More signage is needed. Staff was very pleasant and the bed was very comfortable! Not many places to eat.
