I stayed at this hotel from May 1st to May 5th, and overall, it was a great experience. The staff—from the front desk to housekeeping—were incredibly friendly and helpful. I was especially grateful for the early check-in, which was much appreciated after a long and tiring trip. The complimentary breakfast was a highlight. The food was delicious, and I loved that the variety changed daily—it really made each morning feel fresh and enjoyable. While a few amenities, like the pool area and the washer/dryer, could use a bit of updating, they were still functional and didn’t take away from my stay. I’d absolutely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the area. It was a great short stay, and I’d happily return.

Right off route 74 but not so close that you hear the road traffic. Breakfast options were good. Staff was very friendly. The only negative was the air conditioning system which gave of a musty smell and felt damp.

Don't believe the ratings

The ratings is a lie. The besr part of the hotel was the friendly staff. The hotel floor had a horrible odor when we first arrived, our toilet was clogged when we 1st arrived, the a/c kept going in and out no matter the temp setting, the room had spots on the ceiling and carpet. The bathroom caulking was peeling.

Beds were not comfortable

Our room was clean on arrival. They did have a heated pool and gym which my family used during our stay. The pool was in the small side but my kids enjoyed it. My only area for improvement would have been with the bed and pillows. The bed was very hard which I know some people enjoy but I did not and the feather/down pillows were flat. If I visit again I’ll bring a comforter and pillows of my own.
