Just stayed there last Friday night, so March 21, 2025. Very nice hotel and the manager was super friendly. The rooms were amazing and had the most comfortable beds yet. Nice and soft but not too soft. Only downside was the bath room and how small it is, but it was a minor inconvenience that didn't effect my stay at all. Would definitely stay there again!!!
Very polite easy check in but alot of obnoxious people that hang by the front door all night
These people are so very kind! My stay here has been amazing! Thank YOU!!!
This hotel is a really nice comfortable place to stay big parking lot in the back easy people to deal with
Very wonderful staff very helpful understanding and respectful. The Rooms very well kept breakfast was amazing... Couldn't quite make it all by 11:00 check out time very lenient and gave me a little extra time with no fuss. We'll definitely return
The service was amazing, everyone was very nice. We were able to get where we needed to go quickly with the location. However, when we entered our room it smelled heavily of cigarette smoke. And the power at the hotel also went out while we were getting ready for our concert.
Pravin was the greatest! He was so lively when I checked out and gave me a great experience. Breakfast was great! Best experience I have ever had!
Rooms were decent. There is a McDonald's and gas station right by the hotel. The breakfast was a little disappointing though. A few small donuts from a bag, a few gas station brownies, 2 kinds of cereal, a few bread choices, coffee, packets of oatmeal, and literally a few tiny things of yogurt. The juice machine didn't work either. Also the side door to the hotel that is supposed to be locked was broken or something and didn't lock at all. Also our keys stopped working multiple times. Good place to crash for a few hours though and the price was good.

Short, honest notes are more useful than long ones. A few sentences about what worked, what surprised you, and who the hotel is best for will go a long way.
