I had a great time there to be honest, no issues at all. From when I walked in to check-in the lady at the desk was more than helpful which was nice because I had a long trip and got into my room easily. I woke up around 8 am and the breakfast was so good I honestly got another plate of it. I traveled with my girlfriend and will be back in the future for more events. Thank you very much for the great stay. Also the beds are firm and clean!!!

This was a motel with doors opening to the parking lot. Our flight was delayed, so we arrived late (after midnight) and there were half dozen people loitering around the parking lot, at least 3 cars with people sitting inside blasting music. Did not feel safe. The overhead lights in our room did not work - we were told to use the bedside lamps instead. The TV and phone didn't work either. We booked a queen room, but there was only a small full sized bed inside. The hotel photos on the website are incredibly misleading. Definitely would not recommend.
