I don’t like property still using the Covid short staffed excuse to avoid cleaning your room. They charge full price and don’t clean your room, plain and simple so they stink.

Awesome place , would recommend

Things that could use some improvement: There was a stain on the other bed. Half empty tissue box and some broken parts under the toilet seat and small crack in the edge of the tub. Overall very clean everywhere else and all the staff was very nice. The staff who worked on Thursday till 11 pm would be honorable mention and highly respected because she gave me advice to do door dash when the side walks were covered with snow and risky to walk 1-2 minutes to Wendy's or Burger King. Breakfast was the best I have ever eaten especially the sausage gravy and butter milk biscuit. I didn't know the next day breakfast was going to change but very good overall

When we first arrived our room was cold and we couldn’t get the heater to warm it up. The clerk found another room for us that was much warmer. She was great and asked if that room met our needs and it did. Later I went to move the drapes and I discovered some drywall dust on the floor and nightstand. Not a big deal, but I wouldn’t like it, if it were my hotel. I didn’t complain about it. The carpet looks new, the furnishings could be updated as they are looking pretty warm. The bed was comfortable, and they had an awesome breakfast with lots of choices. I have never had corned beef hash as an option before at a hotel. I would stay here again.

We spent one night there in morning when leaving I notice that my leggings where missing from my over night bag. I thought maybe I just forgot to pack them but when I go home they were no where to be found at home. So someone when we left for a dinner went in our room and stole my leggings. I called the hotel but they did not have them.
