Wrong room category and since the hotel was at capacity we had to take what we were given. Hotels.com made amends for that. The breakfast was mediocre at best. Advanced check in service however the rooms could use some updating. Decent for a night's stay.

State get together 2025

Was in town for a meeting. I paid more for my room than two other rooms in the group did. Mine was by far worse. Worn down bathroom, appliances and felt every spring in the mattress. The other rooms were fresh, clean and had wonderful, new, fluffy mattresses! I was very disappointed to say the least!

Good affordable hotel

Had a quick weekend getaway with the family. The hotel was priced right and the lady at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. Everything was clean and the pool area was nice. The only complaint I have is the beds are not very comfortable. Woke up with a stiff neck and shoulder pain.

We had experienced an issue with our shower not working and called someone from the kiosk who said someone would be there in 10-15 minutes to fix it. Two hours later, no one showed, complained again. We left after waiting 2 hours for maintenance to show up without being able to shower. Apparently others had issues that morning as well. Otherwise the room was clean. Not sure if I'd stay here again.

Blues Cafe weekend

Room was just fine. Breakfast is Belgium waffle maker and cereals and some breads, fruit and dairy. No meat or egg items. Not what I would consider to be a deluxe breakfast as touted on the literature at the hotel. Not even a precooked microwaveable sausage/egg/cheese biscuit. So don't count on that.

Not worth the stay!

Hard bed - woke up with body aches. Water to shower had a weird taste. Cracks all over the place (floor, wall, shower, bathroom) Drawers were broken. Breakfast was sad - coffee was nasty, water dispenser had gunk coming out DONT STAY HERE.
