I was a bit leary since the name of hotel was not on building but the room was clean and updated. It used to be a Quality Inn. The price was good and it sufficed for an overnight stay.

The "hotel" looked very nice and looked new-ish online. I booked a "junior suite" with a king bed. When we checked in, all of the rooms were outside access, some of the clientele looked a bit sketchy? Anyways, the bathroom fan and flushing the toilet were very loud, as well as all the activity in other rooms. And it was very apparent that this property was once a tired old motel in which they updated paint, tile bedding. Put down cheap vinyl flooring that was cold on your feet and had alot of gouges. Overall, it appeared clean, but for the price we paid, i expected MUCH nicer, not a small old motel room with a microwave and fridge. Felt like they were just putting lipstick on a pig!

Ok for a short stay. Good if traveling with pets.

The room was comfortable and felt safe for a motel. Did not know when booking that this was a pet friendly hotel. Wasn't too much of an issue overall, but there was a dog barking outside at 4am and 6am the first night I was there. The 2nd night a group if young kids was being very loud by the pool area until after midnight and quiet hours were supposed to start at 10 pm. Breakfast was decent and breakfast area was well kept. Good location with lots of shopping and restaurants in the area.

OK For a Night, but...

Staff were friendly and helpful. Lobby and Breakfast area welcoming and clean. The room, however needed updating - perhaps because it was a handicapped accessible room and was on the 1st floor, maybe that was why? Bathroom had no hooks for hanging towel and no storage area for toiletries. Sink needed to be recaulked. Pool was nice. Breakfast ok. I wouldnt go out of my way to stay here.
