I stayed here on January 9, 2026. The front desk staff was welcoming and attentive. The location of the hotel was fine. I felt safe. The breakfast options were sufficient.
This part of the review reflects my experience in room 237.
The sleeping and lounging area of the room was nice. It was remodeled and clean. However, the room did not hold heat well. The bathroom needs to be renovated. When I took a shower, the water took a while to get warm. It never got hot. The water stayed warm for a few minutes and then went ice cold and then came out brown! That was traumatizing! I asked others in the group I travelled with about their experience and no one else had this issue.
I won't be staying at this hotel again.

Breakfast attendant was so sweet she even sent me with an extra gluten free muffin! Alot of choices if you aren’t celiac, wish they had bacon though. Front desk had treats for my puppies. Texas Roadhouse and Applebees were both super accessible.
I’m a stickler for cleanliness, our room was clean but someone skipped the vacuum and it was VERY obvious. I do wish they’d enforce the pet policies a little stronger, I shouldn’t have to side step others piles while cleaning up after my own.
Overall I think we’ll stay again!
