The breakfast was very nice. Location was convenient for us. Tub drain stopper was broken but we forgot to report it. Saw security guard outside in dark of early am so was glad to see that since we had things in the bed of our truck we couldn’t put inside to be safe.

Anna and the rest of the front desk staff did an amazing job in helping out my family and I with all our needs. They were very informative and were always willing to help if there was something we needed. The staff that was working during breakfast time did an amazing job at making sure everything was stocked and that everyone was doing okay. Overall, we had a pleasant experience and would definitely come back and recommend to people that are thinking of making a trip down there.

Friendly helpful staff. Hot breakfast was good with a lot of variety. Great blackout curtains that blocked all outside light! The parking spaces are tiny (barely big enough for a midsized sedan. Pool was smallish and in a weird location behind the hotel but fine.

Overall, the hotel was an average condition
The hotel is rather difficult to even get into when I went over in the entering to check in the parking lot was full parking spaces. Don’t really allow for either an average size car without pumping the car next to you. They had a $20 parking fee wasn’t in the bill so they had to add that to the bill when you got there.

Lovely stay.
Met by a very man named Ray right at checkin. Night desk was Kevin. He was great, we bugged him all night, first with getting the computer to video cast to beautiful 4k tv but we took to long to reside about the IT coming up and he had left. We got a 12:39 check out we didn’t need at no cost. We had a very nice stay and would book again.
