Clean, comfortable and convenient. E didn’t get to use the oil or hot tub because it was raining. McDonald’s and a couple of convenience stores in walking distance for snacks. I would be glad to stay here again.
Very noisy place next to the interstate. I also had a neighbor next to me that had a dog barking at all hours of the night. The phone did not work so I couldn't call the front desk. Additionally, the night stand lamp did not work along with the electrical outlets in that area of the room. the continental breakfast was very below average. I would not recommend staying here again.
Overall the Inn itself is pleasing. Very reasonable rates, nice beds and room. Very nice pool area and breakfast is good. My only complaint is when my wife called to follow up with them after discovering my child’s bag full of their most beloved possessions was left behind and we just wanted to know if they were able to find it or not and they assured her they’d look into it and call her back, they didn’t call back. This happened twice even though she asked the second guy please call back, my daughter is heartbroken and keeps asking about if the hotel has called back yet to let her know something. It’s very disappointing when people don’t keep their word. I understand it’s not easy to give people bad news (bag not found or turned into lost & found) but we just needed a response to get closure.
I enjoyed that they have an area for dogs. I was able to go on vacation and not have to worry about having my dogs looked after. The staff is extremely nice and super helpful. I really enjoyed my stay.
This is my third time stay at this property it’s affordable and they only charge you $10 a pet unlike other places that charge $25 a pet first pet is free and $10 for each additional pet a night.
