We arrived for a concert at the fair and the staff hooked us up with a shuttle so we didn't have to drive. They were pleasant and helpful being we were from out of town. The beds were comfortable after a long travel day and a night at the fair. We'd stay there again.

One night family trip

Check in was amazing! The front desk staff was very welcoming! Elevator was broken, which is not their fault. Room was the perfect size for our family! The air conditioning did not work very well and the room was pretty hot and stuffy. The kids loved the pool and hot tub. Breakfast was great! Overall a great stay!

Property has not been renovated in a very long time. Carpets are dirty. Furniture is old, and it has become a property of a lower clientele.

It was a nice hotel and the staff was extremely pleasant. The only problem was the elevator was not working and made it difficult bringing our luggage up the stairs. And the breakfast was nice and the staff was very pleasant

Good but not great

Room aged but comfortable. Carpet and ironing board cover dirty. Toilet squealed loudly as it filled the tank with water. Bathroom door squeaked when opening and closing. Room service only if requested the night before. Elevator was out of service during our visit but we had first floor room. Personnel was awesome.

This was one of the worst hotel stays we’ve had in a while. The room smelled, sheets weren’t available for the pull out couch, the phone was disconnected, the highway noise was excessive due to thin walls, and the neighbors were loud enough to keep us up until 2 am.
