We enjoyed our stay here. The front desk clerk was wonderful sharing information on the hotel and what they do as well as information about the town. She was helpful with our requests. Parking was easy, the rooms were clean. However one room the air conditioner didnt work the greatest. The pool and whirlpool was nice to enjoy. Breakfast had a variety of hot and cold choices. Very nice stay.

This hotel is basically a comfy bed in a place that needs upgrades and maintenance. The sheets were clean, and the bed was comfortable; however, the air conditioner didn't keep the room cool, and overall, the hotel needs some care. The staff was helpful and kind. We did not have breakfast as we woke up too early to access it.

Staff was very helpful with changes in my plans and I was able to add a night easily. The location was convenient with nearby grocery store and restaurants if needed. The room was acceptable with working fridge and AC. The bed and bedding was very comfortable and the shower was good. Overall nothing fancy but had exactly everything needed.

Room cleanliness was okay, there were some leftover stains and food/drink dribbles on surfaces in the room. We had no coffee, cups, stir sticks, etc. in our room and had to ask the front desk. They do not provide shower gel or conditioner, just 1 small shampoo and 2 small lotions. Continental breakfast is NOT free for guests. Staff were kind and helpful.

The room was very clean and quiet. The bathroom was somewhat updated and looked great. Just a little small. When we checked in the gal at the front desk was so helpful and accommodating. You are walking distance to the best restaurants for any meals.
