This hotel was very nice, comfortable, and the service was great. The shower was large and the room was spacious. We were traveling with our dog, and it was a great fit for our family.

We had a wedding in the area and wanted to stay close as we live 2 hours away. We arrive 19 minutes before 3 and were greeted with a cold woman who stated that check in was not until 3 o'clock and we may not check in until then. We left un-checked in and returned after our event. We agree that she was following policy, but I would not use this hotel again based on her rudeness.

The front desk staff was very pleasant and helpful. We had to switch rooms immediately due to a leak and the staff was very accommodating. The rooms are spacious and clean, good for a quick night stay. Our refrigerator leaked over night which left the floor moist and was annoying

The property was very clean and nicely decorated. The beds and pillows were very comfortable and clean. All the staff with whom we interacted were very pleasant and helpful. The pool area was very nice. The outside behind the building could use a bit of tidying near the dumpsters, particularly since it's visible from the pool deck and some guest rooms. The breakfast was more than sufficient to get your day started.

Clean room, hard bed, wired smell, terrible food

Check in was ok. Went to our room, It was very clean, I checked it well but it had an odd smell we could not get rid of. Beds were very firm, too firm. Breakfast was the worst hotel buffet breakfast I’ve ever had. I don’t expect much from hotel breakfast but this wasn’t even edible. The area is not conducive to a crowd. The food is in a small room that doesn’t fit many. It’s backed up and impossible to move around in with other people. The selection was very limited and what they did have, like the eggs, were truly terrible. Our stay was ok but we didn’t sleep great and had to go out for breakfast daily.
