Decent

Location was not great. Service was friendly and helpful. Hotel was clean and in good condition. Room was clean, spacious, and nicely decorated with a modern, metro chic look. Bed and pillows were uncomfortable. Pillows felt old and overused. Bed was hard. We’re used to a bit more cushion. Bathroom was difficult to enter because of the size of the door to the small size of the bathroom. Pocket door would have worked better. Only one person can fit in the bathroom at a time. Water pressure was not great. Pool was not filthy and was warm. Breakfast was decent. Black out curtains were not long enough to black out the light. Thermostat was nice to control the temperature well.

Wonderful and clean. NO BUGS!!! Great family hotel

Took me awhile to find a hotel with no mentions of bed bugs. They keep the place clean, tidy and comfortable! We had zero issues with our stay and will be back next year for the cluster dog shows! We kept our room clean and even cleaned it down before we left. Our daughter loved the pool and they have a 24 hr gym as well.. couldn’t ask for more! Thank you to all of the staff!

The staff was friendly and helpful, and the rooms were very clean. The only negatives were that the bathroom was VERY small, not like in the pictures. You almost cant even close the door to use the toilet, its that tiny. The tub also had peeling paint or something on the bottom. The beds are also on weird metal frames that make the mattresses slide around and make loud banging noises. But overall we had a nice 3 day stay, very clean, the pool was nice and the included breakfast was also very good. The internet was fast despite how busy they were too.
