    This place has no business being as good as it is for the price. My room was perfect, incredibly clean, great Dove soaps and shampoos and hand soap and lotion. Microwave and fridge. Laundry rooms on the third floor, $2 to wash, $2 to dry. The front desk can give you quarters and they sell detergent too. My stay was part of a longer trip so this was great to have. The staff is amazing. Incredibly friendly and responsive. Breakfast was hotel breakfast. I wasn’t wowed but I was honestly very surprised that the bacon was crisp. I did not know hotels were allowed to serve bacon that isn’t completely limp. Coffee available in the lobby all day and it’s good! Ice cream at night. Who does that? This place does. Stay here. I was kinda bummed when I checked out even though I was going on to new fun adventures. Wish I could have brought this place with me.

    Had a Friday wedding that both of our sons were part of the wedding party and needed to be at the wedding venue by 2 pm. Check on is set for 3 pm, so I call George, the general manager on Tuesday and asked if it was possible to get a check in time early enough for them to get their tuxs on in their rooms. I asked for 1 pm and was granted a noon check on for all 3 of our rooms. A manager that has compassion and uses common sense these days is very refreshing. Thank you George.

    Very clean and comfortable. Staff was great. The GM conversing with guests is a nice touch. George seems to have the pulse of his operation under control. Little things matter. This property covers all aspects for a good experience. Thank you!

    I would like to give my upmost gratitude to Sandra who was absolutely wonderful. Our power went out in our complex and I have a son who has special needs so we had to relocate for the evening. Sandra was so understanding and professional. We felt instantly at ease once we arrived and enjoyed the King Suite. The jet pool tub was like being at a spa. Restaurants close by and free breakfast. We will certainly be returning as a home away from home to relax 😊 Thank you Sandra!
