Great hotel! It’s clean and people are so nice! Location is close to many beaches. We have stayed a couple times now and have enjoyed many restaurants a mile or less away! We plan to stay again for sure!

We enjoyed our visit. Affordable, clean and comfy beds-- we may have to research mattresses for home purchases. ,😉 This location is also quiet and walkable to a few eateries. Special thanks to Carri at booking ensuring close rooms, Cherie at check-in who provided recommendations and Ms. Lisa keeping items replenished at breakfast and cleaning tables. They have a cool pancake machine, first time seeing and keeps hygenic and clean stations. Smiling customer service is a rarity it seems. Keep up the good work!

I was just in town for work so honestly I wasn't too picky! However it is a really nice place to stay and its convenient to food and gas. The staff was really nice and the breakfast is pretty good too.

I’ve stayed at this hotel in the past since it’s close to my mother‘s home. I arrived on Christmas Eve and didn’t have a lot of expectations regarding service, but I was pleasantly surprised. Check-in took less than 30 seconds and they still remembered that I like my room on the top floor close to elevators. I believe that’s how my profile for my IHG awards are set up. My room was spotless. In fact it was the cleanest hotel room I’ve ever slept in in my life and I used to travel a lot.
Breakfast options for a limited service hotel we’re fine and lots of to go items for those people hitting the road
I honestly cannot say enough, nice things about the hotel and the staff
