Great Hotel with great staff

We walked into the hotel tired, hungry and pretty frazzled by a truck driver on the interstate who tried to run us off the road. But your staff were so kind, helpful and welcoming that we felt better immediately. Our check in was smooth and simple. They pointed us to a nearby restaurant with great food and our room was clean, quiet and comfortable.

From the second you park and see the view to the smiling face at the front desk and the new clean rooms and can’t forget free coffee all day long.. Everything was amazing sadly we were excited to go for the hot tub but it was drained and not available for use during our stay.

This room looked like they divided an actual hotel room in half and stuffed an armoire in it. The room was clean but crowded. We had to ask the staff for towels twice and they were not rude- but not friendly. They seemed annoyed to be bothered. The breakfast selection was great, but each day we had to ask for the coffee machine to be serviced. This hotel is fine, but not a great choice for traveling with small children. Probably will choose a different hotel next time.

First, the property itself is odd. The access road is dark and overgrown. The outside of the property is a mess. I stayed there before a year ago and it was the same situation. A lot of litter and junk piled around outside. The staff is nice and the room is fine. But this place has obviously seen some hard use. They do not seem to be keeping up with the wear and tear of daily use.

The room was clean and comfortable. The staff is very nice. The only downfall is the toilets don’t have much pressure but that’s in this area. So you do need to flush them a few times.
