The property was clean and the staff were very welcoming. While having my excellent dinner there was a difficult patron, the staff had the most upscale customer service while handling the situation. I felt safe, the hotel was convient to anything I needed.

The pool was a nice break after a long day driving. Room was very nice and they have a bar and dining onsite. Did not get breakfast (which is t included) as the cost seemed high when booking, though I’m betting it is probably pretty good based on the options they offer for dining. Would stay again.
