The initial room we were given had a strong odor of urine so we immediately asked for another room. The second room we were sent to smelled like cigarette smoke and this is listed as a non smoking hotel. I did not feel like changing rooms for a third time so we just dealt with it and found another hotel in the morning. Im not sure how these rooms are cleared by housekeeping with these strong odors. Would not stay here again.

Stayed here multiple times and this was a horrible stay, room above us noise noise noise! I called multiple times and was never offered anything, but a they’re leaving later and I’ll let the manager know. Then the day we’re checking out were followed by a worker asking if we stayed there because food is for people who stay there. Again I stayed here 4 months before with no issues. $975 spent on a disaster. How about a refund,

Hotel felt safe. Room was clean, spacious, and comfortable for our family. Key card was unreliable and had to get new ones multiple times. Breakfast was hot and had good options. Outdoor fireplace gave a welcoming vibe and enjoyed the pool. Great place to stay and would book again if in the area. Convenient location.
