I read all the reviews prior to booking. I’m glad I booked. The room itself was very appealing; modern, nice lighting, & comfy beds! The breakfast had eggs, sausage, waffles, bagels, cream cheese, cereal, coffee, apple juice, & a few other things. Definitely go early to avoid the crowd. The only thing that would top off this hotel is a pool! The ac’s in the rooms work extremely well! I LOVED the bathroom mirror! I highly recommend this hotel.

This hotel was nice enough for the price. The layout of the room was a little off but that’s not a big deal. The shower needed some TLC. The biggest issue is we weren’t told breakfast ends at 9:00am. We arrived late for our stay so thought we had until 10:00am. That was a big let down because that’s a big reason we chose this hotel. The staff was friendly but if you stay, just know breakfast ends earlier than most hotels.

Caring and helpful staff. The front clerk, Osha, is very accommodating and kind. The room was clean. The bed and pillows were comfortable. The breakfast was adequate. Plenty of restaurants and shopping within walking distance. There's even an amazing Christian church down the road if you are looking for a Sunday service. I would stay here again.

Hotel was fine. Bed was comfortable and room was spacious. Bathroom fan wasn’t working so it appeared mold was starting up on the ceiling and toilet leaking onto the floor.
