I stayed there from 6/8 - 6/15. Everything was wonderful, room, desk and cleaning. I had some questions before I came and Levi was so helpful then and when I was there. The restaurant had fabulous food. I was there visiting my grandchildren and couldn’t have picked a better family friendly hotel

Spent two nights here and was so comfortable I didn’t want to leave. I had a king suite room (Rm 296 to be exact) on the backside of the hotel. My room was very spacious and included a separate living room with a TV. It also boasts a mini fridge (empty to store food and beverages for longer stays), a coffee maker and a microwave. All great amenities to have. The hotel offers complimentary daily breakfast which was great to grab a piece of fruit and a coffee to go. Two thumbs up. I will definitely stay here again.

Enjoyed stay. TV Cable boxes and one remote needed to be changed out. There was only one new cable box available, so only one TV was usable. No hooks to hang wet towels in bathroom. When using jacuzzi at night, many bugs around. Other than that we enjoyed hotel. Room was comfortable and breakfast was good. Workers were helpful and friendly.
