The property and staff were great my overall stay was great the bed was so comfortable I didn’t want to get up the only thing I could suggest and ask for is more accommodations of access rooms. There’s only two available and I needed a walk in shower and there wasn’t one available overall I rate my stay a 41/2 stars and have all ready recommended it to several others and I will definitely stay there again if I’m in the area thank you

Disliked: Staff & service
Other than a major checking-in issue, the hotel was great. The breakfast was tasty, and the amenities avaliable exceeded expectations for the price. Just that during check-in, the counter staff couldn't find my prepayment in the system. Had to dispute it with the manager the next morning as Expedia's virtual agent help services were not helpful. No apology or anything given. Annoying and fustrating experience but the hotel itself was nice for the most part.

GEORGE

Liked: Cleanliness
A newer property with clean rooms, free parking and good breakfast. The front desk allowed us to check in early since a room was available. Not so good-the hot shower would last about 5 minutes and then go cold and the flow would trickle every morning around 9:00 am. We stayed for 3 nites and this happened every morning.
