I booked on a third party site and the hotel accidentally charged me too, but immediately made it right! The breakfast was great and the hotel was a perfect location! Right off the highway and close to lots of food options. It seemed pretty clean and well stocked. I have no complaints! Was a great one night stop along the way for our family spring break!
