This is our favorite hotel in town. The staff is so friendly and kind every time we stay. The only downside is they dont have a hot tub any more.

The only issue we had was the sound of the Air Conditioner when it came on. it was loud enough to wake you up when sleeping. Otherwise it was a very pleasant stay. Food was good, bed was comfortable, and pool was fun.

The rooms were clean, the staff were amazing, and the food was good. I have nothing to complain about. They were absolutely wonderful with my husbands service dog (we apologize for the shedding). On our future trips, this will be our go to place to stay.

Comfy and quiet
Very good hotel. Front desk called to check on how the room was after we got settled in. I’ve never had that happen anywhere! Nice hot shower with directions on how to use it. Quiet room, except for a few creaks from the upstairs folks. Comfy bed with plenty of space for us. Will be returning!
