The people were nice, but the property itself seemed to be new but in our room, maybe we had the worst room. The flooring was buckled and is going to need to be repaired. I don’t know if there has been water damage or what happened but we checked out.

Call before you go to not have an issue

The hotel was great very kind staff and very clean the house keeping was great and even helped pick up after my 3 kids when we were out by neatly placing their toys and things along the counter for them. The issue was the hotel is under construction because the majority if the backside is torn off and being replaced due to mold/mildew and rotten wood/framing. It was open so you could clearly see the insulation and framing 2x4s being cut out and replaced from the mold/mildew/rot. Now its possibly a termite issue but didnt look like it. Also they had 3/4 of the parking lot blocked off for both this and having the parking lot refinished. Definitely need to ask if this is all done with before you go

Close to lobby parking was a plus. Very spotty WiFi on first floor. Room smelled musty. Water softener was too strong. We didn’t use the pool or other facilities. Only tried coffee at breakfast

The shower is nice and housekeeping came most days. However the breakfast is awful. Packets of oatmeal, now a yogurt machine. Hot water dispenser never properly cooks the oatmeal. For these they provide "mix ins" which included dried apples amd brown sugar. That's it. The hot opetions always involve biacuits and gravy, then maybe powdered eggs and the thinnest bacon on the planet. I ended up eating breakfast out several days as I was so hungry after the skimpy options
