Rooms were clean but there was mold on the wall in the bathroom that was painted over. Ran out of coffee in the morning when we went through the buffet and the gentleman at the desk didn’t know how to make more.

An adequate place to spend a night however the bed felt hard and old. Bathtub had rust around the drain. Front desk guessed about early check in fee which made me wonder if it was really a thing? Forgot to hold a card for incidentals and had to come find me to get that on hold.

10/10 all around!

The front desk staff when I checked in was amazing! He was so friendly and he knew I was traveling with a small child, so he took extra time to mention things to do with children while staying. He also gave a good dinner recommendation that gave a discount for staying at the hotel. He was very charismatic and welcoming. The hotel was very clean, from the entrance to the room. Comfortable, modern, good bed, cool AC, and quiet! The laundry facility and pool were in order and working great. At check out, another employee was very kind and helpful as well!

Not ALWAYS dog friendly

It says pet friendly but when I arrived, I was told there was no pet rooms available. There was hardly anyone there. After a lengthy phone call I couldn’t understand, they agreed to rent me a room for another $35.. felt like a scam. I would have went somewhere else but was too tired.

First room smelled really bad & had no shower curtain. 2nd room they moved us to had a large hole behind shower but otherwise clean. Staff was very friendly and the only perk. Ice machine was also broken.

Daphne

Disliked: Amenities
The place was conveniently located and felt safe. It was average at best. The main negative was that the room and property smelled bad. It had an odor that was musty or mildewy and my door locks were a challenge to use as they were off track, slightly sideways, or the door frame of my room was slightly off so I had to work to engage the lock. The carpet was dirty in my room which I was aware of more so due to the very clean white bedding where every time I got on it there was debris from walking across the floor barefoot.

Christopher

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The facility is old, the exterior doors at the alternate entrances didn’t close securely. The main door to my room required a bit of force to open and had to be pulled closed to secure. The floor of my first floor room and the hallway had spongy spots. It appears the ownership has changed recently and they are actively working on fixing things. It was a rook for me to sleep while on town for business. But the other facilities around the area are in better condition
