The grounds are clean and right next to Walmart. Our heater in our room wouldn’t turn off so we were boiling the first night. Then the water pressure in the shower was poor and very light. Then the remote wasn’t working but that was an easy battery fix. Wouldn’t recommend room 226.

Don't recommend, go elsewhere.
Subpar, not worth 150 for less s than 8 hours, asked for late check out, was told that would be fine, got multiple people knocking on the door various different times, had to explain to everyone the same thing, yet no one knew, then got a phone call about the exact thing someone just came to my door about. Terrible customer service, might as well go to a model 8 they would have been nicer and less trouble. Don't recommend this place, I thought it would be a nice place for me and my son to stay, I was very wrong.

Hang a door sign or staff will come in your room!
Bed was comfortable and concierge was friendly. Breakfast was good. However, we were woken up at 8:18 AM by knocking on our door and then cleaning lady entering our room. Check out is at 11:00.

Good overall
Check in was fast and easy. Hotel lobby was very nice and clean. First room had black mold in the bathroom so I asked to change rooms. Second room was much better. Very comfortable beds and pillows, heater worked extremely well and water pressure was fine. Pool was clean and very warm! Hot tub was dirty so we didn’t use it. Breakfast had many options and was overall decent but bacon and sausage gravy was very salty. Still tasted good though. Overall decent stay close to Walmart, restaurants and shopping.
