They are remodeling so it will improve. I would like to see more available at breakfast… This morning they had biscuits & gravy, muffins, bagels or cereal. No fruit. No protein. All carbs. Would also like to see a vent fan in the bathroom. That aside, it was great and we will stay again.

Nice place to stay. Hotel staff were awesome. Property under renovation, but that will be fine in time. More attention needs to be spent on room cleanliness. Carpet not vacuumed well, dusting. Etc.
