The staff was incredibly nice and welcoming. The room was huge and the bed was so comfortable! It still felt a little outdated and the AC was off in our room when we checked in which was a bummer.

Front desk attendant was NOT kind and rather rude. Room was okay but not for what was spent. Limited parking due to construction I believe. Won’t be staying here again.

This motel is very nice. It is comfortable and the rooms are very nice. The pool was such a great temperature-we enjoyed a swim before bed. The breakfast was great! I’d definitely stay here again.

Bathrooom sink backed up everyday. Parking lot with potholes, on a busy road and could hear semi's all night long. Overall, staff were courteous and helpful. I stayed 5 days. Id stay there again, but ask for other side of hotel away from road for better sleep.
