    Everything about this hotel was a 10/10 from the cleanliness to the amazing employees. Our two rooms were spotless, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the staff was friendly, professional, and helpful. I had a great experience and would definitely stay here again.

    Great value, super clean rooms, very well lit parking lot, and great people. I’m not sure why they can’t get their pancake machine working.

    Clean rooms, beds clean. Front desk very nice. But every hallway and even the room reeked of weed.
