This was the perfect place for me and my husband to take a quick getaway. Check out was easy and online, staff was very nice, and the room was very clean and nice. The walls are a bit thin so you could hear…noises at times, haha. But we very much enjoyed our stay. Definitely coming back!

When I booked the room, it indicated that there was a bar and restaurant at the hotel. We had to drive to it, it’s not at the hotel at all. Very disappointed!!! Very misleading

Hotel is fine. Unfortunately, at 10:45PM staff opened my door (which was chained) and yelled to get out saying the computer shows the room empty. I checked in at 6pm... paid for the room, was given the card keys... I told them I paid for my room. They came back and beat on the door again 10 minutes later demanding I open the door and vacate the room... they did this several times after I gave them my name... the last time they threatened to call the police, I told them to go right ahead. 10 minutes passed and a lady came to my door again and started to apologize for their error... They need to retrain their staff and learn how to make contact with people that are asleep and not threaten them. The hotel did comp my room and the day staff were very sincere in their repeated apologies. It could have been handled is a much better way....
