Breakfast was good. Room was ok. Bed wasn’t the greatest and room was missing a few items. Wi-Fi was spotty. Didn’t feel safe walking from garage to main entrance. Didn’t see security cameras around perimeter of property

I had an amazing stay at this hotel! From the moment I arrived, the staff was friendly, professional, and eager to make sure I had everything I needed. The room was spotless, beautifully decorated, and extremely comfortable — especially the bed! The amenities were excellent, and I really appreciated how well-maintained everything was. The breakfast was fresh and delicious with plenty of options. The location was also perfect — close to everything but still peaceful and relaxing. Overall, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I’ll definitely be coming back and highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for comfort, great service, and a truly enjoyable stay.

The food from the restaurant was delicious. The room was warm when we arrived but they sent a fan up until the room cooled off. The only complaint was the shower wall had undesirable stuff on shower wall. Also the floor was not clean there were pieces of potato chips under the desk These were things I saw so not sure how well the room was actually clean. Anyone can remake beds and turn glasses over
