I would stay here again. A very positive experience.
Pros:

Breakfast was the best of any place I've stayed. Breakfast and desk staff were very courteous and helpful. Room was clean and service was good. Fairly quiet except for the usual guests that don't think of others.

Cons:

Bathroom sink was slow draining; seemingly backed up. Useable, but not great. No other issues. Nothing to dislike.

Ok for what we required - easy access to all
Pros:

Location was great for all shops and interstates. Breakfast was good enough. Staff very friendly.

Cons:

Room was very tired. Bathroom needs upgrades. Beds weren’t comfy at all. Elevator buttons kept sticking. Pool never had towels out. Overall felt a very tired venue. Hated the smoking outside in areas so close to doors. Staff sat in area by pool to smoke too - very unpleasant
Also need to query a post check out charge that has now appeared to be taken - we stayed 4 days and paid upfront so to see a charge after we left and nothing wa a bought there is concerning.

I checked out very satisfied.
Pros:

The receptionist demeanor was very warming and helpful,from the moment that I walked through the door. She had a great welcoming smile.

Cons:

When I walk into a facility I start inspecting at the front door. The facility was clean and smelled fresh from the front door. The hallways all the way to my room. My room was very clean. It had been cleaned very well. I could tell from seeing and smelling. Things that should shine did. No water spots on the silver faucets that should have not been there.

Nice overnight stop
Pros:

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was good. The beds and rooms were very comfortable. We enjoyed the pool. Property was easy to get to and let us park motorcycles under the roof.

Cons:

It was a little noisy with rooms on the front side of the hotel. The bathroom could’ve been a little cleaner.
