Our stay at the hotel was very relaxating. This hotel accommodate 15 of us that were there for a family trip and our stay was great. The staff were exceptional, room cleaned everyday with fresh towels and the buffet breakfast was worth every dime spent. I will truly return back to this hotel, matter of fact a few of us are already planning on returning in November. We cant wait for you to accommodate us again

The room was clean. Staff was pleasant, however there need to be better communication about the property, dos & don'ts when you are being booked in. Staff need to be aware of the number of guests in a room so that it can be stocked adequately. Poor /spotty internet in the rooms. Breakfast was great.

I booked this room for my elderly grandmother, who had an appointment at the nearby hospital, along with my aunts. The staff was very kind and welcoming. According to my family, the room was clean, comfortable, and very nice. It made their stay much easier during an important medical visit. I’m grateful for the great service they gave my family!
