Lots of things were not working properly. The pool and hot tub, juice machine and pancake maker at breakfast. Breakfast was nothing like pictures. The mattresses were not comfortable. The water fixture in the bathroom sink was loose slid back and forth. The staff was extremely nice!! The hotel over all appeared to be clean.

Generous with Towels!

Front desk staff was friendly and professional. They recommended a local restaurant (Cornerstone) that was within walking distance of hotel. Food and service was great there too! Hotel was clean and my favorite part was that they gave us a lot of towels which always is a plus. Would stay again in our travels!

The breakfast was lacking. The juice machine was not working and appeared to be not working long enough they had a laminated sign on it. It is right on highway and no real view to speak of. Some construction around site. Kids also running in halls but the staff did finally take care of the kids playing tag

Decent place to stay for the price

Two staff members at check in were fabulous! Very pleasant, hospitable and Made sure our friend’s room was beside ours. Our room had some issues, cell phone plug in outlets would not work. There was also a buzzing sound through the night. We could not figure out where it was coming from. Had to use a sound machine to go to sleep.
