The place was nothing fancy but the beds were comfy and the pool was warm. Staff was kind.
We had to stop here during holiday travel due to a snow storm. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Lots of food options close to the property. It’s a bit of an older facility but was clean and comfortable. Kids enjoyed the indoor pool. Overall, happy we found this place.
The most amazing hotel ever, i could fwel the love in my room.My house keeping lady was amazing,and the breakfast was fantastic.It wasnt huge,but it was breakfast and it was fresh.They had eggs,sausage,waffles,muffins,penut butter and jelly and more.
Beds are comfortable, continental breakfast is a good variety, staff is very friendly and helpful, rooms are clean, great water pressure in the showers, zero complaints, great stay, thank you.
Excellent option for a short stay. Breakfast provided many options for kids, adults and seniors! Internet was spotty. But, that was the only issue we experienced.
Breakfast room was well attended. Not a huge spread but acceptable for this level of accommodations. Pool was OK. Nice big TV with some movie channels.

Rooms are clean but hotel is old and pool has mold around drainage. Overall is good value for the money.
The hotel was great value for the price. Staff was very helpful and everything was clean and tidy. I'll definitely be staying with them if I need a hotel in the area.
