We checked into our room. Clerk was not the friendliest. When we opened the door to our room, the bed was a mess and it appeared as if nobody cleaned it. We decided to leave and drove 4 hrs home since there were no other rooms available. Not a good experience at all. Requested a refund on our room

The hotel is in a nice area. It is very clean and the staff there were respectful, courteous and stayed on top of things. The breakfast was going fast but the staff made sure to be closely monitoring it and kept coming in to refill items. I don't think there was one thing my family could complain about during our stay here!

The room was dirtier than ideal. Felt like it hadn’t been more than lightly wiped down. People sitting in their cars in the parking lot at odd hours seemed a bit creepy.
