Corey, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

My stay was great, quiet and peaceful. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The downside was the breakfast and coffee, very limited and no one was doing anything about the coffee on Saturday morning.
Sheldon, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Overall, it was clean which is the most important to me! However, the property itself you could see was very old. They only had one elevator, low ceilings and you small rooms.

Jennifer M, 2-night trip

4/10 Poor

Did not feel comfortable in the annex building. Room could us some serious updates. Also did not like the fact you had to go thru an underground tunnel to the main building for breakfast.
Patricia, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great l

What a find! This hotel was an exceptional value and had so many thoughtful features. Included breakfast was exceptional and served with actual glass plates and metal silverware. Our pet-friendly room was convenient for outdoor access. Staff were friendly and helpful. Conveniently located just off the interstate for overnight stops like ours. When we are in this area again we will definitely stay here.

Angie, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We only stayed one night as we were in town for a show at The Surf and this hotel was a perfect option. Just a short drive to the ballroom and right off the highway with several quick dining options close by. Staff were very nice and accommodating and we appreciated that the hotel was pet friendly, clean and provided a nice breakfast. I would definitely stay here again.
Tamra, 1-night trip

Convenient and quiet stay. Breakfast staff was very nice!
Tracy, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Our stay was good. The hotel was pretty busy with an event in town. No working elevator and we were on the third floor. They did offer assistance with our bags. Breakfast was the same as most other chain properties. They were very busy but kept up with demand. Hotel was clean and well kept.
