We absolutely love this property! Finally had a chance to try the breakfast it was amazing! They added potatoes with peppers and onions to the breakfast buffet they were delicious. And i highly recommend the waffles. We can't wait to stay again.

Good hotel for family. Stayed during state basketball it was clean and worked great for family. The game room shown in picture costs $5 per hour per person. It was after a snow storm when arrived and the snow removal was poor.

Game room was 5 dollars per person which seems excessive for me and my kids when nobody else was even there. The waffle batter was empty and couldn’t find anyone to help fill it. Ended up going elsewhere for breakfast. Sign by box said to turn in key and take a travel bag but there were no travel bags.

Room was good for the price. No shampoo for the room. Not sure if it was supposed to have it or not.
Toilet flush valve decided to ljust start leaking at about 1am so the toilet ran all night long.

Beds wete great, room clean and nice. Breakfast was pretty wiped out by 9:30 (serve until 10), and no coffee available - so we had to go out. But otherwise good value.

we stay there every year in July. It's a very convenient location and the staff is so helpful. The new game room is a plus for teenage kids.

I planned a weekend get-away for me, my daughter and my granddaughter and our stay here was fabulous. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The room was cozy, comfortable with a lot of space. The grounds around the building were clean, no trash in sight. Breakfast was very good. Everything was hot and fresh. Delicious cookies at the counter were a plus! Thank you for a wonderful stay.

We stayed for a night while passing through. We wanted a place with a king bed and a pull out couch for the little one, which is exactly what we got. We also had our dog so we were thrilled about the $15 pet fee (many places charge more). We appreciated having the kitchenette so we could unload the cooler for the night. We were right next to a birthday party and we heard nothing. We hardly heard anyone in the halls. It was definitely comfortable for a night. Breakfast had a decent spread and the front desk was friendly. I wouldn't mind staying again.

Nice safe area with a newer suburban feel, less than 5 minutes from the highway without the highway noise. Mike at the front desk was a friendly guy that made check-in a breeze. We love our clean, modern room and would absolutely stay here again!
