The property was very clean and staff was super friendly and helpful. I enjoyed my time there and look forward to go back. I loved that you needed a key card to get the elevator to go up to any floor. It felt very safe due to that which is always a plus!

Our stay was wonderful. The hotel was nice; it had everything we needed. Parking was easy and we were within walking distance to our event. The bed was comfortable and had nice sheets. The gym had everything you could need and the pool was larger than most hotel pools. Breakfast at the restaurant was delicious, the staff was very friendly and efficient.

Everything was great, the staff was helpful.and friendly and the room was clean and tidy.

The staff was incredible! The manager and entire staff I came across was always willing to help and went above and beyond. The extra effort to make my daughter’s birthday was amazing and I will always cherish the memories made! I got an extra room for family that came from out of state and the front desk was super accommodating with late checkout to ensure they slept. I loved the atmosphere over all. My family and I definitely plan on going back.
