Recommend calling ahead to check on events. There was a youth hockey tournament in town and the kids ran wild in the hotel while the parents stayed in their own rooms. Quite a drunk fest with the parents. We switched rooms the second night to get away from rooms full of kids with no adults and knock knock run and while we tried to fall asleep. We discovered dirty socks when climbing into bed in our new fresh clean room the second night. We changed our own bedding before going to sleep. They struggled to keep up with the guests and food for the continental breakfast. The gal at the front desk tried to help and do what she could which we appreciated. Rough stay.

Property was wonderful. I did not get the room I paid for. I paid for a king suite. I got a double queen standard. The room was clean and well taken care of. Just not what I paid for.

Great coffee!!

We were only there one night, but our stay was lovely and just what was needed in the middle of a long and weary trip. Close to the hockey rink and an Aldi was helpful as well. Breakfast was great with a super friendly staff and AMAZING grind on the spot coffee. Thanks for everything!! Newer hotel, beds were comfy and very clean.
