We really enjoyed our stay. The place is very clean. The staff was knowledgeable and friendly. The complimentary breakfast was great. Fresh and hot food with a great selection. Coolest part was their pancake machine. And definitely try the orange infused water. It was a great experience and we will stay again.

Everything about his hotel was great EXCEPT the CARPET IS FILTHY AND NEEDS REPLACED! Everything else was very clean. There was crusty crap between the night stand and bed. The carpet just needs to go. And the room number sign had fallen off.
