Great location!!!

Liked: The location was amazing. The staff was very helpful and attentive.
Disliked: The hotel room took almost an hour past check-in time to be ready. The hotel could use some aesthetic improvements done correctly instead of cheaply covered up. Curtain in room was gross and so old with stains.

Great get away, fabulous location,...

Liked: Breakfast was good, needs more protein.Nice to provide breakfast, convenient.
Disliked: Facility is not adequate, too small, layout of breakfast is not organized. Waffles up front, syrup is at end of counter as far as possible from the waffle iron. Only 10 seats provided. Probably not enough for your slowest day.

Would only possibly stay again...

Liked: I loved the location and the convenience of the hotel. The staff was helpful informational and very nice.
Disliked: The queen beds in the room were not comfortable and the pillows are almost half pillow size and also very uncomfortable. We had to find the remote which was under and behind the bed I️ was able to move the bed to get to it but it was unfortunate that I️ had to do that. The blankets were also very thin and lastly the bed I️ slept in creaked very loudly any time I️ moved.
