We arrived at 2:00 pm and we're greeted by the friendliest gentlemen in the parking lot. He assisted us parking our large truck, & was extremely efficient. We were delighted that our rooms were ready & we could check in early. Rooms were very clean and comfortable. Nice updated decor. Excellent location, close to everything.

Cons-Room was next to storage so naturally was loud. Employees need to be cognizant of the noise. Bathroom was dirty and outdated. Pros-close to everything. Next to great breakfast area, Mary’s diner

Check in was quick but wish the lady was a little more enthusiastic to see us and more accommodating. Room was beside the employee storage unit so lots of noises even late at night. Bathroom was dirty. AC was loud and outdated.
