We had a great stay! Room and facility were clean and comfortable. We also really appreciated Jamie’s hard work, friendliness and great conversation during breakfast! We will definitely be staying here again.
We had an excellent stay. The breakfast was great with lots of hot food options. Jamie Lynn was just amazing and made sure we had the food we liked. Ryan in the front desk was so friendly and helpful with the weather. We will stay here again.
Newly remodeled rooms were clean and comfortable. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was adequate and well stocked. Overall a good stay for the price. Good location; access to parking lot a bit tricky.
The hotel remodel looks great (though I don’t know how it was before) this was my first time at this location. I had read several reviews of how good the breakfast was. So I was eager to see. Well let me tell you it totally set a new standard of excellence and experience for a hotel breakfast. I’m so or I did not get the persons name on the staff but their communication and commitment to the food preparation and delivery was excellent. Area was clean and fully stocked
The staff was so kind and I felt very safe in the area

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
This was a most enjoyable stay as the property is updated and immaculate, the breakfast tasty and plentiful. Staff works to make the stay more than satisfactory.
The hotel is new, in excellent condition, with comfortable bedding, large screen TV, and nicely appointed bathroom. Plenty of parking, well lit parking lot, and friendly staff. Would definitely stay here again.
This area and hotel location have a lot to offer. Staff, room, and facilities are some of the best I have encountered. Hotel location was quiet. There are a lot of dining options and there are several outdoor activities to enjoy....
First off the gentleman that checked us in was the nicest guy and needs a raise for great customer service. I wish I remembered his name! The newly remodeled rooms were spotless and comfortable! It was nice to see people enjoying the amenities and common areas just to hang out. I would stay there again without a doubt.
