Very clean and recently renovated property. The staff are nice but were a little slow getting to the front desk when arrived. The room (129) must have been far away from the wifi router because the connection was weak and would keep disconnecting. I liked that there were snack and drinks in the lobby and the drinks were super cold. The automatic curtains in the room were also very cool. The desk could use a lamp.

Room was renovated with a great bed and large TV. Accent furniture is dated and worn. Room refrigerator should be de-iced and cleaned. Staff was very friendly. They clearly take pride in their property. Overall, a good stay.

Not on par with the Expedia / Hotels.com rating. Bathroom was old and mildew wood. Quite a bad smell. Believe we received a lesser quality room as we booked via Expedia / Hotels.com.

Pleasant surprise

We stayed in a block of rooms for a family wedding in the area. I was pleasantly surprised by the rooms, which are newly remodeled. The mattress was super comfortable. TVs are huge. The only thing I would recommend, which I feel is very important, is the safety in the bathroom. They need to get grip bars and no-slip mats for the shower. I would stay again.
