Perfect spot to rest if you are in transit, can’t ask for more for what they charge. Breakfast was good, beds were comfortable, hot water in the showers etc… also right off the highway and a few good restaurants to eat at in walking distance.

Great place to stay

Polite and funny staff, beds were comfortable and clean, pool was sparkling and warm! Good breakfast selections that were hot and yummy the sausage gravy and biscuits available during our stay were delicious! Plenty of towels in the room extra toilet paper and toiletries available, tea and coffee in room with coffee maker! Would definitely reccomend staying here!

Quick Trip

The staff was professional and efficient. The room was comfortable. There was a tissue stuck in the peep hole, the ice bucket was dirt, the seal on the bottom of the door was coming off, and the toilet leaked. The hotel it's self was quiet. The location is good but getting in and out can be tough.
