The hotel was decent but the beds were hard as a rock. If I had to stay another night, I could t with those beds. They didn’t allow me to get comfortable and that made me toss and turn all night. The wife had the same issue

Several rooms going through upgrades. Should make them nicer. Front desk staff VERY friendly and helpful with my questions. Breakfast foods were also very good. The lady servicing the dining area was on top of everything. She should get an A+. There are newer and I’m sure more expensive hotels in the area but this one works for me

Like the rooms. They are remodeling so there is some areas under construction. But well worth it in the sweet rooms. The only thing we didn't really like were the pillows. Instead of 4 normal sized pillows on the bed there were 4 half sized pillows.
