Very comfortable stay! It was very easy to get there from the interstate and the beds were comfy. The continental breakfast was delicious and there were lots of options! Our only concern was regarding overall cleanliness. The pool area was not very clean and there were a lot of ants near the windows. There also was some food left in our fridge from the previous stay. We would definitely stay again!

Easy check in. The rooms we stayed in were nicely cleaned and the floor was quiet. This is the nicest hotel in the area. I enjoy staying here every time I come back to visit. The only issue sometimes it can be difficult to find staff at the front desk and they aren’t always present.

Breakfast was gross. Wet eggs, 5-day old sausage, no Danish, no fruit. Room was noisy, the floor cracked and creaked all night, neighbor was noisy, felt like the floor by the door to hall had water damage or poorly laid. Never stay there again.

We checked in and was given our room key. Went to our room, walked in saw Arby’s sack on desk and the bed was unmade. Went back to front desk to let them know either we walked into an already occupied room or it was not cleaned the night before. Neither was verified with us and was assigned another room. Second room the bathroom lights were strobing when we turned them on. Also found hair in the shower. It was an ok stay, would recommend more thorough cleaning and attention.

We love this hotel; however this stay wasn’t great. Dog barking on Friday. The shower door doesn’t stay closed so water leaks a lot. The bed is not very comfortable. The tv didn’t work in the bedroom, pixilation.

It was very nice. Quiet, bed was comfortable. Room was handy and clean. I liked the wall hangers to hang clothes. Things to improve were the heater never did reach set point. Was warm at least. The door would only lock if you slammed the door repeatedly. The body soap was nearly empty. Breakfast was 100% Ultra processed food and is not worth eating to me. More fresh foods please. Please switch to organize oatmeal. Regular oatmeal is not trustworthy and often chemical ridden

Average hotel

Check in was a little slow. Room was nice but could have been cleaned a little better. For the price they could have had coffee in the lobby and better coffee in the rooms, maybe a Keurig and some pods. Overall nice hotel.
