Wonderful staff

Staff was wonderful, rooms were clean! Our only complaint is that the beds were too firm for us and pillows were terrible! Also room 131 needs a new piece of rubber on the door because there's a big gap on the bottom and the room had a lot of mosquitoes! We put something over the gap and room stayed cool

Great hotel off the 5

My husband and I arrived late at night and just needed to get a few hours sleep before heading back on the road. The man that checked us in was super nice and inbthe morning we grabbed a nice quick breakfast from the lobby and we were back on the road. We'll be staying here again if we need a stop on our travels that way.

We've stayed in 12 hotels this vacation and this was by far the very best besides breakfast. Our room was fantastic and very roomy. Bed was super comfortable and the shower had lots of hot water and pressure. We thought "oh, this place is so great, nice and clean, brightly lit sidewalk, safe feeling and everything ". Then we went for breakfast. It was only bagels, muffins, cereals and yogurt. No eggs, sausage or biscuits and gravy. Not even a waffle maker. SO DISSAPOINTING.

The pool looked great but we didnt have time to use it. Very clean everywhere inside and out. Friendly staff and good wifi. Limited continental breakfast, but several restaurants nearby offer breakfast. The only issue we had was that the shower head in our room was broken. My husband was able to get a shower with the tiny droplets coming out...but I couldn't take a shower like that. We alerted staff that morning when we checked out. Regardless, we would stay here again because it was so clean and tidy.
