Clean rooms and comfortable beds. Weights were missing from weight room. We were supposed to stay for 2 nights but when we went out to the parking lot after the 1st night, there was a car which had its tires and rims stolen and was propped up on 4 milk crates. We left after the 1st night. Stay at your own risk.

Front desk clerk friendly and personable. If you’re a light sleeper, this isn’t your place to stay. You can hear every slamming door and shower being taken. Bed was uncomfortable but the sheets were clean and the pillows were nice! Breakfast was unsatisfying.

Probably not again

Hotel suited our needs for a 2 night stay. Hotel is right off the Highway and about 15-20 minutes from downtown. Continental breakfast was nice. The hotel is older and musty. I could hear our neighbors doing very personal private things through the wall and it was loud! Seems like a lot of people were living there long term. We like to budget travel so this was apart of that but I’m sure for a bit more money you could stay somewhere nicer and close to town.

I loved the friendliness of the staff however there was no wifi our entire stay. The rooms were nice and clean everything worked but the wifi. This was upsetting since I did have schoolwork that needed to be done. I also wish the pool was open at least until 9pm. Also, if dogs are going to be allowed to stay their owners should be picking up after them the ENTIRE time. Other than that great property.
