The hotel is impeccably clean and the service is outstanding. I had a last minute change in the schedule and the management went above and beyond to accommodate it and move our reservation to a day later than was originally planned - they saved the day for me! All staff is super friendly, hotel location is wonderful too, close to the highway and a few good local restaurants. Highly recommend!

Room next to elevator was a big negative. You can hear it all night. If you are a deep sleeper maybe, if not room 101 stay away. 😉

This hotel would have been a fine hotel at 100 a night. I stayed during a busy event and it went up to 250 a night and was definitely not updated and nice enough to pay that.

Out of stater visiting for a funeral service. I was pleasantly surprised with the last minute booking. The female at the front desk rearranged the room assignment so that my 90 year old father was in an adjoining room. The room was very clean which is number one in my book. Early breakfast was nice. Yes I would stay here again.

Our recent stay was wonderful. The room and bathroom were very clean and comfortable. Upon check in Ricky and Michael at the front desk were very friendly. During the stay, when I would see Ricky he was always very friendly and happy. He made us feel so welcome. He shows that he really loves his job.
