Staff is nice. Room needs an update. The toilet was tiny - just 15" tall. Not suitable for a "nice" hotel. Parking is a bit limited ... if i parked in front of my room, in a marked space, i blocked in a car set at 90* from my space. Street parking is available for RVs or trucks.

Liked: Room comfort
The bed was reasonably comfortable as were the pillows. The shower curtain was bad. Need two layers - one inside one outside. Water spray/bounced out of the corners because of this. Front desk staff was courteous and friendly. Hot meal products eggs and sausage leave a lot to be desired. Fruit was fresh.

Glad I stayed here! My room was nicely decorated & well maintained. I appreciated the microwave, mini-fridge, & small inclusions like makeup remover & earplugs. (Didn't need the earplugs, thankfully.) Breakfast buffet was good, with multiple hot items. Would stay here again.
