Larry at the front desk was great helpful very friendly! Alfreda made the breakfast and it was wonderful she was a great host very welcoming.

We stayed one night while exploring Lawrence’s Manhattan Street. The hotel was just a 5 minute drive to the area. It was very quiet and the grounds were well maintained. We would definitely stay there again.

The hotel has been remodeled and looks very nice - the room was clean - hallways clean - food fresh and hot. The front desk staff that assisted with check in and check out were very nice and professional. The pool area was clean - the only thing regarding the pool area was the shower to get wet was not working - the knob just kept going around & around.
