I was in town for a wedding and so glad I booked here! The front desk staff was nice and helpful, the property itself was well-kept and the room was very nice and CLEAN! As a female solo traveler, I felt safe during the entire stay. 10/10, would definitely book again.

This property does need a few updates and has had some issues with towels being stolen but the staff was all very friendly and helpful. If you're looking for super high class this is not the place for you, but it is very friendly, welcoming, and comfortable.
