I loved the hotel!!! The staff were super friendly. We even used the pool during our stay. The only negative I would have to say about the hotel is that they take forever releasing your funds for the hotel incidentals. I checked out Sunday morning, September 6th and it is now coming up at the end of Wednesday, September 9th. I'm sure you could tell my hotel room was perfect when I checked out and nothing was charged to my room.

great location! easy in and out parking and staff were great. Rooms clean with comfortable beds, powerful AC and some of the best shower water pressure I’ve ever had in a hotel. Only negatives are our tub didn’t drain, the beds didn’t get remade (doesn’t every hotel do this?) and it just needs some updating. Doors in bathroom had peeling paint. But that all being said i would 100% stay here again and recommend it.
