Great place to stay.
I really like this hotel. It’s right next to a Best Western Premier. Between the two, this hotel is always cheaper, but the rooms are very equivalent and the breakfast here is better.

Loved the Cleanliness!
I selected this hotel because of the number of reviews mentioning the cleanliness. I was not disappointed. The room was very clean! It was quiet during the two weekend nights we stayed there. Mattress was very comfortable! I did not try the breakfast so I can’t speak to that, but I found this room to be a great value for the price. I would stay here again.

My stay was nice it was very clean. Quiet but not to quiet. Breakfast selection was my nice as well didn't taste like blan hotel food. I was disappointed I Google to see if there was a hot tub it showed that it did have a hot tub, when I got there they didn't that was the main reason I rented a hotel room.

The hotel wasn’t full but they still put everyone on the same floor right next to eachother, walls are paper thin so be prepared to hear others next to you.

Pleasantly surprised by the quality!!
We were so pleased with our stay. We chose one of the most budget-friendly options afraid that may mean we had to sacrifice a bit on the cleanliness or comfort side of things, but that wasn't the case at all! Beds were comfortable. Everything was clean. The breakfast variety was incredible. We will definitely recommend your facility to anyone staying in the area!
