The room was very clean. The staff was friendly and attentive to requests. In regard to VIP bonuses-- the lounge credit wasn't helpful, as we had family dinner functions, so no need for evening food/drink.

Liked: Staff & service
Place is just okay. There’s no wow factor. We went to the bar to have a drink and the bartender seemed like he was in a bad mood, didn’t make us feel welcomed. The power went out when I was blow drying my hair. We had to wait for someone to reset the breaker. For some he price we paid to stay I feel like it’s over priced. I would not stay here again.

I had a wonderful stay here! The inn was quaint, clean, and offered easy access from the freeway. Despite the convenient location, it was quiet and peaceful. The service was excellent—friendly and attentive. Highly recommend!
