Ok place

My key to the room stopped working, they quickly rekeyed it but it was inconvenient. The parking is tight for bigger vehicles. The rooms overlooking the highway are loud.

The towels in the bathroom looked like someone had cleaned an engine with them and they were stained. The bed cover was dirty. I was there on a family emergency and just did not want to have to deal with the staff on the room. I would not recommend this hotel to family or friends.

Not highly recommended.

Young lady who checked us in super sweet. The hotel tub needs to be bleached. We didn’t sleep and left early no showers as no thank you to the bathroom. I don’t recommend.

So I reserved our room before reading reviews because I saw it had an overall good star rating and was reasonably priced. As we got closer I read some reviews and got nervous. Some people mentioned surroundings being questionable, dirty room, and bugs. Upon our arrival we were greeted by the manager and proptly assisted with our check in. He was very courteous. Our room was nice. Had enough modern updates, was clean, and very comfortable. I stripped back the blankets and such to check for dirt etc... and found nothing but perfectly clean white sheets! My family slept well. TV worked, shower had great water pressure and temperature. My only complaint is that the shower head was low... but I am tall, so it was no big deal. Thanks for a great stay, we'd definitely book again if passing through!
