I dont understand the good reviews on here. Let me preface this by saying that I'm an easy going person and never write bad reviews.We have traveled extensively and have never experienced what we experienced at this hotel. We checked into our room, settled in and felt it was a bit cold (we got there late at night) we adjusted the thermostat to warm it up a bit, but it wouldn't work. The humidity in the room kept getting higher according to the thermostat but the temperature wouldn't change. I called the front desk and he sent up a maintenance worker immediately (they were both very nice). But that didn't fix the problem, so we were given a new room. The thermostat worked perfectly in that room, but the door facing the balcony (1st floor) was OPEN, about an inch and would not close. Their solution was to put a wooden stick on the bottom to prevent the door from being opened from the outside. We were already tired and decided to just let that go. Got in the shower and the fire alarm went off (because of the stream I'm assuming) sending my special needs son into a full blown panic attack. I have NEVER experienced a fire alarm going off due to a hot shower. My poor son was shaking the rest of the night and couldn't sleep. And now he's an anxious mess at the slightest sound of anything resembling a fire alarm. Not to mention NO ONE called to check why the alarm went off or anything. Also... there were roaches. I am beyond fuming with this property.

The property looks much better in the photos. The room was not comfortable at all. The AC made a clunky noise every hour on the hour. It sounded like someone was slamming the door all night. The space looks like they just painted over stained walls. There's a big difference from clean and comfy to painting over a bad property and this place gave me and my family that feel. I would not stay here again. The Breakfast and coffee was good though on the way out.

Overall the hotel is fine. On first look it appears well kept and clean. Unfortunately once settled in little things become noticeable. A soap wrapper left in the bathroom, door handles with paint splattered on them, areas on walls where something was spilled and not wiped down.

1. There was no heat in room. 2. The sofa bed was not flat but had a U shape. 3. The sofa bed mattress was too old and thin, pressed against metal support bar all night. 4. Breakfast food - mystery meat, cubed eggs and potatoes that tasted as if they have been reheated 7 or 8 times...bleeeeeck

Place was decent for price. Clean, check in was easy. Can be a little loud at times and the light outside patio door is not connected to room and was on all night until early morning everyday. Could be distracting for people who don’t sleep easy. Overall it was comfortable.

This establishment went above and beyond our expectations. It is a very quaint and relaxed place. I had no problem going to and from Busch Grdens as they shuttle you with the family and enjoyed my stay so much I’m returning two weeks later . My wife and will be making this our regular stay from now on.
