The first thing was the little stream running behind the property, with the geese and ducks. Then, when we entered the room, we immediately knew it was clean! The staff. From check-in to check- out were pleasant, helpful and courteous. We will definitely recommend it to our friends! Thank you!

Right in the heart of everything. Entrance was a bit confusing as it doesn’t connect in the front but you figure it out. Checkin was fast and staff was great. Great mobility options. King room was a nice size. River view I guess but there is a whole parking lot and I thought we would be on it, my fault. Great dark out shades. Quiet. Good for food delivery. The only reason I won’t go back is the bed. So soft and lumpy and I needed to rest before continuing my road trip and very much couldn’t. Left exhausted. :(

The room was small, but sufficient for a short stay for three people, but wish a sofa would have been in the room or a rollaway available. There were several long black hairs on the bathroom floor and tub, some folded in the towels, and some left over whiskers in the sink. I do wish you didn't have to walk outside in the cool weather to get to the pool and hot tub area. Rather uncomfortable walking back to the room all wet and cold. The road traffic was loud! The staff were all friendly and pleasant. The free breakfast was sufficient, yogurt, bananas, fruit cups, instant oatmeal, coffee, juice, etc. But the hot breakfast was not the quality I expected.
