The room was very dirty. Wrappers from previous guests, dirt, dust, and hair in the floor. There was a hole over the shower that could’ve been a camera. There was hair in the shower. The beds appeared clean and were comfortable.
Caitlin, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Clean and quiet. Convenient location.

I had a very nice stay. The hotel was very clean and my room was spacious especially the bathroom. The rooms have Keurig style coffee makers with an assortment of coffees and tea. There is a refigerator with a real freezer and a microwave also. Breakfast is included and there is an assortment of hot and cold food offered. The gentleman who checked me in and worked nights was very friendly and welcoming and informative. There is ample free parking and several restaurants within walking distance. There is an outdoor pool but it was off season when I was there. I would recommend this hotel.

Filthy hotel

Super dirty Staff seemed lazy Entire hotel was dirty and not clean at all. Baseboards in the room were falling off the walls. Mold on ceiling in bathroom. Hallways, elevator and common areas were not cleaned the entire 3 nights we were there. Gross

Scott at the front desk is absolutely amazing. I stay here every other week or so for work & he is always so welcoming when I check in. The hotel is brand new, the rooms are very nice. Bed is great. TV’s are bigger & more updated than most. You can’t get a room this nice for a better price anywhere else. 10/10 recommend

Planning another visit soon!

Hotel was at capacity for the weekend but everything was perfect from check in to check out. We got to the property about 45 minutes before check in. Our room was not yet ready which was 100% expected. We made the comment that we were just there a little early to swim, they allowed us to swim why we waited for the room to be ready. Pool was perfect temperature and crystal clear, rooms were clean and comfortable. Staff was extremely friendly and even with the full house breakfast was smooth and well stocked. We are already planning our next visit.

The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. We had a great breakfast in the lobby. The only issue I had with the hotel was the price. I think it was a little too pricey for the area.

10/10 Exceptional

This location was ideal for an early morning appointment. It was only a few miles away from the location, and there were a few restaurants that were in the area also. The staff were personable, especially Mr Jim and his son. Scott was nice too. The breakfast was good! Mr Jim keeps it stocked as possible and I like that he asked, “what kind of eggs do I like?”
