Tournament? Great option

We stayed here for a lacrosse tournament and it seemed to be a “tournament hotel”. Lots of teams and a Conduct Commitment Document had to be signed at check in. The breakfast was good. They have a good laundry facility, ice on each floor, a VERY small pool (3’ deep) a jacuzzi and a 24/7 sundries/snack shop. Checked the right boxes for this trip.
Freshly ground and brewed coffee available in the lobby 24/7
You can lounge by the pool while you do your laundry $2 per load. Quarters only.
They have a pancake machine!!! Good bye bad waffles!!
Newer machines. Most average 25 minutes per cycle.
