Clean room, Jacuzzi tub was wonderful, good breakfast options, friendly staff. Main parking lot was full each night - parked at approved property across the street which was close, but activity in that area made me feel on guard walking over to the hotel alone at night. Would stay again though
Great beautiful hotel clean and spacious rooms with great amenities staff are great friendly amazing only i was not happy the shower not great water not strong breakfast it's okay
The stay was comfortable. Staff were all friendly and very helpful, which made my staying enjoyable. The facility is not new, but well maintained and clean.
I would definitely return this hotel.
Great suite, clean, and front desk provided an amenity I forgot to pack which I really appreciate.
Breakfast needs improvement, more variety needed for hot items, and refrigerator needs to be set cooler for the boiled eggs and yogurt.
Our room was spotless and very welcoming. Brent was the front desk employee, very knowledgeable an and friendly.
Everything was in working order.The remote for the t v the air conditioner, the refrigerator was already cold. I recommend this place and would stay here again.
