After multiple attempts to get into my room, staff was able to assign me to another room. As I was getting ready to relax, TV was glitching, which was unfortunate. Only 1 Ice machine worked. Cleanliness was acceptable, and the breakfast was okay as well. Front desk staff were nice and converse.

My old bones enjoyed the hot tub. Booked for three nights, were only able to stay two. Nice room. Would have been nice if housekeeping would have popped in after our first night to empty trash and check on towels. Without question would stay again.

It's better than the average Best Western but worse than Hiltons by a pretty good long shot. This property in particular set off my mold allergies so proceed with caution.
