We were super happy with our stay here! The staff (especially Vijay) were exceptional and super accommodating for our team stay. Kids loved the outdoor pool and breakfast in the morning. The parents enjoyed the convenience of amenities around and knowing we’re in good hands.

Booked a stay at a motel down the road, sketchy to say the least. Decided late last minute to move to something safer and cleaner. Vijay was super kind and helpful. The hotel is clean and maintained very well. If you have to stay in this town, then this is the number one choice without a doubt.

The property is what you would expect . Breakfast was convenient. The pool is nice for a refreshing dip on a hot day . Shopping at a big Walmart is v close enough to walk to . Only thing is we had to do online check in before arriving and then they needed us to do it all over again upon arrival . Seems like a needless extra step .....
