Room was excellent for working. Not the most comfortable for leisure. No room for an extra chair in the room and (i can't believe I'm going to say this) but the pillows were too soft to prop yourself up in the bed. Did like the access to filtered water in the fitness area. Housekeeping was FANTASTIC!

This hotel has become our go to place to stay in the area. Very clean, spacious and quiet, comfortable rooms. Nice bedding. Floors are clean. Great water pressure in the shower. Free self parking. Friendly staff. Breakfast was simple but good. Options to grab and go, or to plenty of seating to sit and enjoy. Hot breakfast was scrambled eggs, cheese eggs, sausage. There was also yougert, cereals, toast and other items. The workout room looked nice. Talked to some kids who had used the pool. They said it was nice but lots of chlorine. This hotel is very close to outlet shopping and Bass Pro.

Loved the smell of the lobby - super clean hotel. Gym was fantastic too - with a VIEW. Michelle at the front desk was exceptional. She welcomed us and was so friendly, kind and caring. Made us feel right at home. Please recognize her! She was working upon our check in Saturday. Thank you.

Was a decent hotel. Room wasn’t ready when we got there. Staff seemed annoyed that we were there. Have stayed here before but this was not the normal service we have gotten.

Great Stay
Very nice hotel, fairly new from my estimate. I booked a lake view room, but when I got to my room it was not a lake view. When I told the front desk, she upgraded me to a suite with a lake view at no extra charge. Super helpful and friendly staff. Totally clean room.

Would definitely choose to stay here again!
Hotel check in staff was very friendly and helpful. Rooms were very clean with comfortable beds. I love how the hotel extras like shampoo and conditioner are larger and wall mounted for those who have super long hair. We all enjoyed breakfast with all the great variety. Hot tub jets were not working (hot still) but told us if needed we could use the hotel next doors (Hyatt). Pool hours were great! I love the check in and out times. Great hotel within walking distance to restaurants and shopping!

It was a clean, quiet, safe, and convenient stay. The beds were comfortable, and the shower was great. Breakfast was nice: scrambled eggs, omelettes, sausages, oatmeal with healthy toppings, bread and spread, etc. I missed having fresh fruit and alternative milk. Overall, a very pleasant stay.
