Reserved and paid for a room with a king bed and upon arrival was told they only had rooms with two queens left. The staff was very friendly, but the beds were extremely firm.

Very nice.

This place was amazing. Nice and new. Very clean. Everything worked in the room. My only small complaint would be the beds. They are very high. Short or older people will have to crwal up on them.

Shower curtain

Everything was fine except for the shower. You could tell there used to be a door there, but they put a curtain up, but it didn’t go to the floor so when I got out of the shower, there was water all over the floor. I’ve been taking showers for quite a while and know how to close the curtain and all that stuff… what can I say?

Staff was phenomenal- so friendly and above and beyond helpful! The only pitfall is across the street from the hotel seems to be a dumping area lots of grocery carts and trash which seems to blow over to the parking lot but otherwise this property was perfect!

From the moment I entered the foyer I was pleased. The staff was absolutely amazing with suggestions and assistance. Every request I made was met above expectation and with a pleasant personable response or provision. I was very pleased and comfortable. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience.

Clean room and property. Beds were comfortable. The beds sit very high. I had to give my mom (5’ 2”) a boost up so she could get in bed! lol. The dining room/bar served good food and the breakfast was good.
