Nothing bad to say-Base room for a base price. Breakfast was good and area was quiet. Long hair hanging from the exhaust fan in the bathroom is my only complaint.

I was surprised at the cleanliness and nice decor of the room. Family oriented, I felt safe even though it is a motel. The only thing I felt needed improvement is the size of the dining area.

Extremely rude and impolite staff upon arrival, we were treated very badly because we booked with Expedia, in their opinion the worst operator for booking, and with that price they would have given us the worst room in the hotel. And so she did.

We just stayed a night, but absentmindedly left a personal item behind in the room. Upon realizing it, I called back to check — Michelle and Lori found it, and went out of their way to have it packaged and mailed back to us, something I wouldn’t even expect some 5-star hotels to do. Thanks Michelle and Lori!!
