I will for sure be staying here again! I was weary at first for it being a 2 star hotel but it was the best hotel I’ve been in a while! A great place for anyone and it worked out perfectly for our little family vacay. The kids had fun in the lounge area where they have board games, coloring books, a large connect four, pool table, and more. The amenities are amazing with a cute pool, gym and laundry services. The hotel room was very clean with all the basic necessities you would need. I always dislike that you need to bring hand soap to hotels but they had convenient installed bottles of soaps, lotions and shower needs without the wasteful little bottles you’re used to seeing. Check in and out was easy and the last thing to note was the amazing breakfast! It has great options for all! I usually don’t write this much but I was very happy with our stay.

Front desk staff were wonderful! Hot water was limited in shower. Room was VERY basic and felt like an unfinished apartment. One tiny desk. Nowhere but the floor to put things. Beds not high quality. Pillows were fine. Breakfast options were fine (Jimmy Dean sandwiches, waffle maker, cereal, yogurt, oranges, bananas) but it was not restocked even after we asked, with an hour still left. The biggest issue was noise just by nature of the building, not noisy guests. You can hear everything! Maybe because the rooms are empty and constructed with vinyl flooring? Pool table was fun. Swimming pool is tiny- so tiny my kids didn’t want to play. Area felt safe. We travel a lot. For a quick overnight, it’s fine. Would not stay for a vacation.

We had our family and pets in the lounge area and played pool. Had a lot of fun. Carl at the front desk was AWESOME, we had requested adjoining rooms. When we were checking in, they did not have us in them. Carl checked and was able to get us into such rooms. Made our stay a lot more fun. Thank you, Carl!!

My family loved the lobby area with games and lots of sitting areas. We were disappointed with the pool which was very small. It was defiantly clean and the area around the pool was nice but the pool capacity was 9 people so it did fill up very quickly.

Staff was great, nice accommodations. Noisy Little League kids running amok, but thats not the hotel's fault. I enjoyed the stay.

Our family was on the tail end of a road trip and needed a spot for the night to rest up. We left wishing we had gotten in earlier and could take more advantage of this hotel. The lobby is immaculate, the room was amazing, everything we encountered was incredibly clean and modern. Breakfast the next morning was fantastic and we were greeted with a couple of bottles of water when we checked in, which was great cause it was very late at night and we were exhausted and hadn't made a stop in a while. Would totally recommend this spot for not just quick stays (it's a minute off the highway) but longer ones as well.

Things I liked: I loved the gaming area. It was great for my teens. There was board games and a pool table. It was a great atmosphere for family time. The rooms were nice. The TV was great, there were lots of options and it was a smart TV so you could log in your own streaming info into it as well. The breakfast was great! Lots of options! They had breakfast sandwiches, bacon, eggs, an automatic pancake machine, and many other choices. I was impressed. The things I didn't like: The bed wasn't as comfortable as I normally expect for a hotel. The bedspread, blankets, and sheets were a little thin. I did sleep well though. The rooms don't have a microwave. There was a microwave on the first floor everyone could use, but only one for a whole hotel, so there was always a line. We had to wait several minutes to be able to use the microwave. Overall, I really enjoyed this hotel and I would stay there again.

Hotel was clean. Room had no carpet, which I liked. My only complaint is sound seemed to travel easily but we were there during spring break and there were a lot of kids.

First off…let me start by saying the staff here is amazing. They were friendly knowledgeable and actually felt like they sincerely cared for the people that were staying with them. With that said…There have only been 2 times I’ve ever checked out of a hotel early. Unfortunately this hotel was one of them. Here is a quick run down of why we left and decided a 8 hour drive was better than staying here: 1. The rooms are loud. No carpet. No sound deadening. Nothing to take away the echoes or take away the noise from other rooms. 2. Hotel is labeled kid friendly, but that is really only the lobby and pool. The rooms not having soft carpet lead to my child slipping and falling a fair amount. Couple that with the fact that all the furnishings have sharp corners…it made for a stressful situation. 3. The beds were AWFUL! I have been deployed to the Middle East several times and the temporary cots I stayed in from FOB to FOB were more comfortable than the beds in the rooms. The mattresses were lumpy and the frames rattled and squeaked. I will limit my review to those 3 things…I have many more issues with my stay. But let me end with this…the breakfast here is way better than most hotels I’ve stayed in. I mean the pancake conveyer is fun for the kids, the frittatas and gourmet sandwiches were a nice surprise after an awful night of almost no sleep.
