My husband and I really enjoyed the friendliness of the staff and the quietness of the rooms. The room was clean and comfortable too. The breakfast area was great and the man working there was very friendly and attentive. Would definitely stay there again.
Staff very friendly, pool is great and not too cold, woodwork and accents throughout very beautiful, breakfast was excellent, room was very comfortable but bathroom could use some minor updates. Overall excellent and would stay again!
Would definitely stay here again! Great staff, comfy bed and the shower was amazing (great water pressure)!! Also very clean and quiet! Thank you again! We will stay here again next time we are in the area! :)

Dated, but clean and very friendly/accommodating staff
Loved the courtyard access and adjoining room. Staff was excellent and very accommodating. Breakfast was very good. Have stayed there before and will again.
This hotel has been upgraded in the past few years and though the outside is still dated, the inside is well taken care of. Nice pool for the kids, plenty of parking, the breakfast was very clean and well maintained and the beds were comfortable. Its a great affordable choice.

Definitely an older hotel. The towels have been used many, many times and were not fluffy at all. There was a dripping in one of the stairwells so the carpet was wet.
The breakfast was good and the cost of my stay was low so those were good points.
The customer service after out stay was fantastic!
The motel was very clean and loved the bathroom layout with extra " getting ready " area outside bathroom.

Courteous staff. Fair bed and breakfast. The halls were freezing which made the bathroom area on the cold side. The hand towels smelled funny and the bathroom floor was a bit sticky. But all in all a good value for the price.
Beautiful hotel, friendly and helpful staff. I have stayed a few times and its been pleasant every time! 10/10

The facility is dated. The bathroom was worn and in need of renovations. One very thin blanket between two sheets. Luke warm water in the shower. The breakfast was good with real scrambled eggs rather than the watery powdered eggs of many free breakfast buffets.
