The staff is incredibly helpful and friendly. The property is in a freat location, and is easy to get in and out. Parking is a breeze, and nearby attractions are easy to get to. There are a few areas where cleaning could be improves (hair and dust around the rim of the tub, hair on the bedspread) but otherwise freat! We will stay here again.

I always love staying here when I come to town to visit my mother. The staff is always so pleasant, the room was clean, and I feel very safe staying here. My only complaint was the TV. I couldn't get it to work the first night of my stay and then I asked someone at the desk the next morning and she said I had to unplug the tv to reset it and press the up button. Maybe add some instruction in the room? Other than that, lovely stay.

The hotel is in a great location near many activities and restaurants. Staff was friendly. Hotel room was dirty. Son spilled water on the tile, we wiped it up, and the rag came up black. Could not walk barefoot on the carpet because it had a disgusting crunchy texture. Brown dirty stains found on bathroom shelves under the sink. Stains on desk. Overall, unimpressed by cleanliness.

I am in the area for work and this facility is close to the site. It has nice local amenities within walking or a very short drive distance. It is also merely a 20 minute drive from the airport. This staff is very friendly and the live music on Wednesday nights in the lounge is an awesome treat.
