- JRJeremy Riffle1 day ago5.0I am an over the road truck driver and when I am in town I try to stay at this hotel. I have never had an issue on getting a room and the CLC process can take a minute but the front desk always makes it look so easy. Lori and Dominic are awesome at multitasking and making you feel welcome. I usually show up in the early mornings so they are trying to handle other customers but still make me feel wanted here and are always keeping a smile on their face. Lisa and Solanthel over in the breakfast area, sorry if I misspelled her name, are awesome as well. Lisa is always willing to give me a hug and talk with me. Solanthel is always asking if I need anything and making sure I am happy. Lisa works so hard on keeping everything clean. Lisa, Solanthel, Lori and Dominic are the reason I always come back here. Thank you for having them as employees and thank you for the great service and the quiet and clean rooms!!
- MMMikeFeb 15, 20261.0Called for a welfare check on my son and was transferred 5 times over 30 minutes. The worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. Had to call the local authorities to Assess the situation.
- MQMacy QuartierFeb 11, 20265.0We got to stay in the newly remodeled rooms and they were so fresh and clean! Truly felt comfortable. Janna was absolutely amazing! She was so sweet to us and made us feel truly at home. She was very conversational and took the time to chat with us. We looked forward to going to the front to see her! She is a keeper and definitely one to take the time to talk to! Thank you Janna! From three college kids who valued your time! ❤️
