A hidden gem I accidentally stumbled upon. Worth a first look next time I’m in the area. Don’t think I’ve ever had a warmer welcome check in. A spotless property. Fresh fruit berries in the buffet in the morning was the best.

I would definitely encourage people to stay here. It was quiet and easy to get to everything in the area. Having your own transportation is a necessity. The place was very clean and well maintained. The staff was delightful. The breakfasts were adequate during the week. Breakfast was much better on the weekend. The bar had a good selection of bourbon.
