We enjoyed our time at the property, it was nice clean and the breakfast was good! The front office staff was pleasant and informative. We thought the beds and linens were extra comfortable! The only problem we had was with the tv, we could not cast or stream any app. That was unfortunate but overall we would stay there again😊

My stay was enjoyable. Used the pool area however the Hot tub only had 2 jets working and the tub was in need of resurfacing. The pool also needed resurfacing paint chips were all over the bottom of the pool. Room was very comfortable and breakfast was very good. Darin checked me in and he was very friendly and answered all my questions. It was a pleasure staying. Hopefully the pool will be updated by the next time I come to stay.

Front desk stepping up

Breakfast was decent for a hotel breakfast but I have to give a shout out to Darin. There was help needed with my father and instead of just saying sorry, can’t help, he did the exact opposite. He helped my father and in turn helped me and my family enjoy my son’s college graduation. Thank you so much Darin!!!!

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.

Decent place

Hotel room was clean & comfortable. Lighting in bathroom is very poor & dim. It needs a new toilet seat, cuz it was discolored, makes it look old. Breakfast was good. Make your own pancakes was nice but it tasted a little rubbery. Cinnamon rolls were nice & warm. There was cereal & oatmeal packets. Turkey sausage tasted fake. Sausage links were good. Veg omelets were ok. There's Toast, muffins, yogurt, hard boiled eggs, Coffee & juices. Nothing to brag about but it was filling. I would stay there again if i knew the bathroom issues were resolved & if the price was right.
