My room was spacious and clean. Service at the hotel was very sparse. I never saw an employee after checking in. Most of the breakfast items had run out by 8 am. I looked again before I checked out, a little before 9, and nothing had been restocked. So despite not having high expectations for breakfast, they still managed to disappoint me.

The hotel was fine. However, it appeared to have few customers when we were there. The pool, hot tub, and sauna were working and were very welcome after a long, hot drive. There were no lights on, and no light switch to be found, so, as darkness fell, we were in a pool only lit by outside lighting finding its way indoors through the large windows. It is very conveniently located right off the Interstate so it makes for a quick stop on a long trip.

I have stayed there for business the last 4 years and not one time have I had a complaint. I will continue to stay there every year. My television was not working and they responded quickly to get me one that was working. I also left a mirror and they mailed it to me. It isn't a "fancy" hotel but the friendliness and cleanliness all but makes up for any 5 star hotel. In my opinion it is 5 star!
