Staff was very friendly. The building is a bit dated and worn looking but I think they are in the process of renovating. The breakfast buffet was disappointing. Food was cold and some items were not being replenished.

My children and I had a good time at this location. I liked that there were options for my 8yr old - swimming pool and arcade. LOVED that breakfast was included. Room was clean and tidy, as were the amenities. Staff was friendly and attentive! Great location too - near highways and shopping ! Great for a weekend stay.

I stay here regularly and they have removed coffee makers from the rooms and the cable TV has very few channels now. It’s been under construction for several months causing inconvenience and no discernible benefit to the experience as a guest. The property seems to specialize in teen sports tournament stays, and do nothing to enforce quiet hours. The past few stays it’s been loud with unattended teenagers running up and down halls being disruptive while the parents drink and party with their room doors open. It’s overpriced and the experience in the part 2 years has tanked as a regular guest.
