We inadvertently booked a stay here instead of the Holiday Inn closer to our venue but we are so glad we stayed at this location. It was clean, quiet, and comfortable, and even though we had to drive to meet up with our relatives our accommodations were much better.

The staff was very hospitable, however the room was not up to my standards, particularly the bathroom. There was rust in the base of the bathtub as well as on the tissue holder. The shower head had build up that varied in color.

The first room we were assigned had not been cleaned at all from the last occupants. The second room was just unkept and dirty despite “servicing”. The bathroom was particularly disgusting. Will not recommend or stay there again!

Room was clean and everything in working order. While the room felt a bit muggy at first we were able to get that handled. I will warn and not sure if it is every room, clearly some resurfacing of the bathtub has been done which made it awkward to shower. Almost co.ing to a V. I would suggest if you have any type of mobility concerns to request a room with a walk in shower if that is an available option. I would still stay here again though!!
