Guest：Clean and comfortable for a quick night stay. Not a family vacation place but good. Good breakfast options.: 2026-02-01

Guest：The room smell like smoke from cigarettes even though it was a non smoking room. It didn't seem clean and breakfast was somewhat ok, it is not breakfast is just cereal ,eggs, biscuits,and waffles.: 2026-02-01

Guest：I was traveling with my husband and our 1.5 year old. We arrived in the evening ready to unpack and go to sleep. The front desk lady was having a bad day. She was super nice. But we arrived with the entire lobby wet and no wet wet floor signs. Then when we arrived in our room it was dirty and we needed to request a vacuum and they had us vacuum it ourselves. There was also a storage closet full of a ton of dangerous, sharp things that was unlocked and opened IN OUR ROOM. It took 30 minutes to finally get it closed and locked so we could put our son to bed. There was nothing edible for breakfast, the food was not good, cereal was stale, bread was stale, the yogurt machine was empty and they did not refill it our entire stay. The warm pool was the only saving grace this place had. Overall it is rundown, unclean and has no edible food. Very disappointed: 2026-04-01

Guest：There was a huge cobweb in the corner of the ceiling. We got a stained washcloth. There was an old piece of food under the bed. We only had 1 thin blanket & a sheet on the bed & when we requested an extra blanket, they said they didn't have any.: 2026-03-01
