The lady welcomed us and was very helpful. The entry way was lit up and clean. The parking lot felt safe and secure with all the lighting. I like that they lock the main doors at night.

We arrived really late at night and were hoping to sleep in a bit. But housekeeping kept knocking on our door to check if we were out already. It wasn't once, it was multiple times. So needless to say we didn't get the sleep we initially wanted.

This hotel was very nice, the staff were very friendly and accommodating. The room was fresh and clean . The location was very convenient to everything you would want to go to.

The soap dispensers they were a bit hard to use, and ours fell off in the shower I don’t like the big bottles attached to the walls.

Property and room were clean, modern and the lobby area had the feel of a more expensive boutique hotel. Great breakfast and ample and safe parking. When we checked-in, the employee at the front desk told us there’s a guard on duty all night that watches the parking lot. Would definitely stay here again.

I never give a 10, but All the accommodations were amazing and very impressed by staff taking care of us and our Moms At front desk. I think her name was April or Amber

The rooms were really nice but I think someone smoked outside of our room before or maybe too close to smoke area but otherwise amazing.

Hotel is clean! Comfortable beds and pillows, sheets are good quality. Gym is a great size and love the pool

I wish you would be more environmentally friendly and use paper cups, plates and biodegradable cutlery instead of plastic. Recycling bins would also be great. There was no sign in bathroom about reusing towels instead of using new towels every day. Y'all have a really good hotel that just needs a couple of tweeks

All was good , loved the shower and bed was comfortable. Breakfast was good but the sausage patties could use some work no flavor and cold would rather have bacon next time . Very professional and friendly staff .

Breakfast sausage patties everything else was good . You could hear feet stomping above our room but it stopped after a while . We drove 8 hours to get there for sons graduation and we were tired.

Nice view, room was large plenty of seating and storage. Microwave and refrigerator was a plus. Shower, large mirros and Dove products also a plus!

The bathroom floor was not throughly cleaned. Large opening at bottom of room main door, placed bath towel under for privacy.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Hotel was updated and clean.

Door was not framed correctly so there was a large gap on the bottom and sides allowing light and sound to enter the room easily.
