Custodians didn’t allow me to fully check out without bussing into my room and starting the check out process. Mind you, check wasn’t until 11am, they bussed into my room without my permission around 9:30am and started the checkout process.

A hidden gem. Flight delays had us arrive way later than expected. Tom at the Front Desk was excellent as were all the staff we met. Super clean rooms and facilities, great breakfast. Hotel is very quiet. It’s a good location and kind of hidden. We’ll definitely be back.

Exceptionally clean throughout! Staff were all very friendly, Star who was manning the desk was attentive, professional, and went out of her way to make our stay thoroughly enjoyable. Nicest hotel I have been to in several years. Highly recommend your stay here.

We've stayed at this location before and will continue to come back to this property because it is always clean, and the staff has always been very pleasant. The complimentary breakfast provided is always very fresh and delicious with several options to choose from. We've shared our experiences from our stay with others who ended up staying here too and agreed with our comments above too.

Overall good stay

It was very clean. The only thing that kept me from writing five stars on everything was the A/C unit in our room was a little noisy at times. Probably needs some maintenance done on it. Also, the tub is very slippery.
