I stayed at this property for a week in business and service checking in was easy with a friendly staff that made me feel welcomed. Room was clean and quiet at night. The only problem I encountered was my room toilet did not flush properly.

I was very pleased with the quality of the sheets and beds, the cleanliness of the room we had, the very large food selection for breakfast. For the cost of the room. It is not a $500 a night hotel, but I have stayed in some of those that were worse than this room. The room I had was remodeled. I would not say recently as you could tell there was some wear and tear. But it was not old and in need of repair by anymeans. My friends hate their decision to save a few dollars to stay at the hotel across the way. No one else liked their hotel except for those of us who paid a little more for a better room. 100% say its worth it. Really just in breakfast alone, makes it worth the cost difference. Bacon, sausage, eggs, biscuits and gravy, potatoes, on the hot line as well as make your own waffles, plain or strawberry batter. Then all the other stuff, yogurt, pastries, fresh fruit. Ect.

I had a wonderful experience staying one night for my daughter's dance competition. Nothing fancy, but it was clean, beds were comfy and we got a great night's sleep, no noise or interruptions. Great deal for the price, would definitely stay here again.

I gave a review a couple years ago and I must say this hotel has vastly improved! They still have the same excellent customer service but now the rooms match the quality of the staff! Rooms are very clean and fully updated. Breakfast was always great!

Great place to stay. Clean quiet. Easy to find off highway. We are in the handicap room. If you are in a wheelchair it is not a roll in shower. It's a tub with low handles. Room is spacious. The staff is very nice and helpful. We would definitely stay again.
