My only big complaint was how bad it smelled in the whole hotel and in our room. Our room smelled like poop and the rest of the hotel sort of smelled the same but with a very strong smelling perfume trying to cover it up. The front entrance to the lobby was horrible, it took my breath away. The room was otherwise clean, but out of shampoo and conditioner. The pool and spa were clean and appeared well maintained. The breakfast was great with a good variety of choices, hot and cold.

The property was nice. Easy to access good location. Cleanliness was appreciated. The only thing i would want to say was that upon using shower my daughter and i both came out with our eyes kind of burning and sneezung a bit. It didnt last and no harm done i think perhaps its the chemical used to clean the bathrooms there was no fan to pull the steam and if the chemical hadnt been properly wiped off its more than likely the exposure once the steam set in. Again its not a big deal just maybe mention to house keeping to make sure the spray isnt left sitting on surfaces. Otherwise i think it was a fine stay and we will be back. Thank you

Room was freezing cold when we arrived. Everything was unplugged. Stool is EXTREMELY low. Is at the height of a child which makes it uncomfortable for a normal adult.

Horrible sleep

The hotel itself is alright. Nothing stands out as wonderful or horrible. Clean enough, nice enough people. But the "regular" rooms are tiny. And the beds were so incredibly UNCOMFORTABLE. None of us got much sleep. There isn't enough parking in the parking lot for the rooms in the hotel. Also the air conditioner ran the entire time we were there and never was able to cool the room down to 70 degrees. Altogether, a very uncomfortable stay.

This review is for a Standard Room, 2 Queen Beds - 1 adult, 1 teen and 1 child – 2 Night Stay (July 8 – 10, 2025). The location is good, very close to IKEA and there’s a Denny’s next door. The room was quiet, staff were friendly and accommodating. Parking is a bit compact. There were no USB outlets in the room! I’m sad to report that the Wi-Fi was very poor for us. The beds were springy and uncomfortable. Small dated bathrooms, we had to hold down the lever on the toilet for it to flush. Rainfall shower head – great water pressure and honestly one of the best things about this place. The hot tub and indoor pool were wonderful. No vending machines, prices on the snack bar are a bit pricey for convenience. Breakfast buffet: Biscuits and gravy, Sausage patties, Country fries, Fluffy eggs. They do have a pancake maker. It was a nice variety and quite filling. I booked this hotel for the hot tub/indoor pool and hot breakfast. Overall hotel was nice but doubtful we’d return for another stay.
