Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is conveniently located right off the expressway, making it advantageous for various events and easy access to shopping. The rooms are brand new, clean, and comfortable, although the air conditioning could use some improvement. The staff goes above and beyond to assist guests, even addressing billing mix-ups. The dining experience is delightful with a restaurant attached offering delicious food. The location is great for visiting family and nearby town venues.
My stay at this hotel was quite pleasant. The rooms are nice, with comfy pillows and beds, and even though they are in the process of becoming a nonsmoking hotel, the rate was very reasonable. I was glad that the heating unit worked well.
The motel was very accessible and located in a quiet area, even though there was a persistent smell of smoke which they claimed to be transitioning away from. The rooms had a stale or antiseptic odor. The service was excellent, going above and beyond to fix a billing mix-up promptly. The location was convenient, right off the expressway, making it easy to access. The dining options were limited and didn't offer much in terms of healthy choices.
Our stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The rooms were clean and smelled nice, providing a peaceful environment despite ongoing changes to become a nonsmoking hotel. However, noise levels were noticeable at times.
This motel offers a clean and comfortable stay with friendly staff in a convenient location, although the dining options may not meet all expectations.
I had a mixed experience at the motel. The rooms were nice and comfy with great pillows and bed, but unfortunately, they had a stale cigarette smoke smell that was not pleasant at all, contradicting the smoke-free claim. The service, however, was excellent, with friendly and engaging staff who went above and beyond to assist me. The location was convenient for visiting family and shopping, although that was the only positive aspect. The dining options were limited, and the breakfast was not what I expected.
