When I 1st got there the young girl that checked me in was at the table in the lobby playing on her phone sitting with another young boy. She was dressed in sweats. Unprofessional. Day 2 I came back from my conference in the evening and the pool was out of order. And the elevator was not working as the emergency phone had been activated.. The 3rd day i got back from my conference arms full went to my room to find my key didn't work had to walk downstairs and get new keys. Recieved no explanation as to why that happened.

Great place to stay.

I really like this hotel. It’s right next to a Best Western Premier. Between the two, this hotel is always cheaper, but the rooms are very equivalent and the breakfast here is better.

Loved the Cleanliness!

I selected this hotel because of the number of reviews mentioning the cleanliness. I was not disappointed. The room was very clean! It was quiet during the two weekend nights we stayed there. Mattress was very comfortable! I did not try the breakfast so I can’t speak to that, but I found this room to be a great value for the price. I would stay here again.
