This hotel was nice. The room was the perfect size for my family. Breakfast was good. We stayed for 3 nights and I could tell the staff cleaned my room daily and provided fresh towels.

Very nice room. Beds were comfortable. We were in a family room with pullout couch so it was nice to have the separation between the two areas. Kids were disappointed the pool was down but other than that it was a great place to stay.

Stay Far Away
The place was an absolute dump! WiFi didn’t work, pools were down, grounds gross. The room was clean is best we could say. We had to pick here for the town and to get the size room we needed but awful!

Do not recommend
This hotel is clearly going down hill. The pools are not open and does not look like they will ever be. The hotel is run down especially the outside and courtyard area. It is also a motel which feels unsafe in a not great neighborhood.

This is a very nice motel with updated rooms and excellent service. It’s a good choice for anyone who is looking for a moderately priced motel close to everything.

3 nights i
The pool and spa were being rehabilitated and not available. If we knew we would’ve booked elsewhere. Signs of wear/tear - cracked sink, scratched floors, squeaky shower, brown lawn, featured fountain not working. Service was helpful and breakfast was good.

Minuses: Member of housekeeping staff unexpectedly opened door unannounced and without knocking, and leftover food container was found in mini fridge.
Pluses: Front desk manager was extremely understanding and apologetic, and was helpful in finding us another hotel to go to.

Don’t do it
Would never make this mistake again. Had two nights booked, moved elsewhere for the second night knowing I would never be refunded. Unsafe. Dirty. Shabby. Loud. Left at 5 am after doors slammed around me all night, people passed out on the grass outside the lobby.

The staff were very accommodating and pleasant! The facility unfortunately was having some issues with the water and we did not have any hot water for showers. The staff understood and again were very pleasant to work with in a very stressful situation.
