Great staff, super friendly and efficient. Rooms were ok, very clean, but a bit shabby. Nice pool/spa area, very clean, but also a bit shabby. Beds were very uncomfortable, but neat and clean. Breakfast was varied, sausage, hashbrown, eggs, biscuits and gravy, and varied mufgins, bagels, waffles, etc, and it was very well kept. Thanks for a great stay!

Clean, comfy beds but NOISY.

The front desk was very friendly/helpful. There was a family style restaurant (Peppers) less than 1/4 mile away that was delicious. Beds were comfy. The only drawback was that you could hear every car noise and people talking outside all night long. Also the sink and tub were both very slow draining.
