Plan to leave early
The facility was very nice, especially for the price! Breakfast was ok and the person who welcomed us the night of check in was pleasant. The only problem I did have was the day we were to leave. Online it said our check out was scheduled for noon. The hotel had signs up that said check out was at 11. At 10:45 we had a knock at the door as we were packing. It was room service coming to clean our room already! We told her we were almost done and please give us a minute. Not even 5 minutes later she knocked again. I informed her that it was not even 11 yet and our specific check out was actually supposed to be at 12. She walked off with an attitude and we were finally able to finish packing and leave. So, if you plan to actually stay until the time posted online, this isn't the place for you. They apparently will run you off as early as possible with no warning. Had it not been for that experience, I would give this hotel 5 stars. However, that final impression was a lasting one and I won't be picking this hotel again next year.

I loved the vibe of this hotel. Very quiet and the room was spacious and everything in the area is conveniently located. By the way this was my 3rd time staying at the property and will book for future stays.
