Room was very clean and the staff was very kind and went above and beyond! The pool had lots of lounge options and the hot breakfast every morning was good! Would definitely come back!
Room was clean and tidy, very spacious and the kitchen was perfect for a longer stay. The bed was comfortable and rooms serviced daily. I picked the location as it was central to everywhere I needed to go. I highly recommend this property.
Hotel was ok for the price, good size of refrigerator and small kitchen with cooktop it's a plus for a room,only no couch in our room to seat comfortably.
Friendly and accomodating staff. Hotel and grounds clean and upkept well. Pool area comfortable and convenient. Rooms updated. Breakfast was great. Would come back for sure and tell others it is a great place.
This is a good property for a single person or couple who needs to stay for a night or two and is not looking for luxury, but is looking for affordability, cleanliness and security.
The only issue is the Wi-Fi it works great in their breakfast room, but in the rooms itself, it is not even useful.
The place is a roadside motel. We stayed in an efficiency unit, but did not cook there. It was very expensive, but clean. There was a very strong odor of pesticide, but no signs of pests. The bathroom was clean and the bed was comfy.
