Categories

Cleanliness
9.1
Multiple guests described rooms as comfortable, neat and clean; however a few noted an overpowering cleaner/baby-powder smell and a slight musty odor in some rooms.
Service
8
Several reviewers praised helpful, friendly staff, but there are notable negatives: reports of rudeness, a guest kicked out over a pet miscommunication, and at least one slow check-in (32 min) while staff chatted.
Location
9
Many guests explicitly praised the location and area; guests cited convenience and that the location contributed positively to their stay.
Room Quality
8
Beds and room cleanliness were praised and shower enclosure was described as new; some rooms felt musty, A/C not very cold for some, and bathroom fixtures/ceiling showed wear and need updating.
Amenities
8
Guests appreciated the pool and general accessibility; however there were missing conveniences (no in-room coffee maker, limited lobby coffee), occasional towel shortages, and inconsistent breakfast service.
Value for Money
7.3
Mixed sentiment: some said it was worth the price when booked ahead, others felt it was a bit pricey given cold breakfast and service inconsistencies (one guest explicitly called it 'a little pricey').
Food and Beverage
4.8
Consistently negative comments about breakfast being cold, limited (only sausage and potatoes some days), and in one case described as gross; this is the weakest area in reviews.
Overall Experience
9
Overall guests tended to have pleasant stays and would consider returning; positive cleanliness, staff friendliness (mostly) and location outweigh the recurring issues with breakfast and occasional service lapses.

Overall it was good. I’d stay again but would probably check out other hotels and compare orices first. All the staff w
Pros:

Good area, the workers were nice.

Cons:

It’s run down. The bathroom did not have a fan so when you goy out of the shower it’s foggy and steam running down the walls. The shower enclosure though, was new and nice. Some of the bathroom ceiling was chipped. The bathroom was clean, just needs updated, things falling apart. The main room seemed musty. Again, it was clean, just the air wasn’t moving around very good.

It achieved its purpose.
Pros:

I didn't get to try the breakfast bc I had an out patient surgery but my friend liked it.

Cons:

One set of our room keys did not program correctly, so I had to go back down to get them re programmed. I had to wait for what seemed like forever (32 mins) bc the guest that were at the counter wanted to talk shop instead of reading the room and conducting their business and moving along. The security latch latched itself and had to wait for the staff to come up. I was there for a surgery so I didn't get to try the breakfast but my friend said it was good. I would have liked to have had a coffee maker (or coffee available in the lobby that would have been nice). Was a little pricey for the experience, but I would still give them another shot. I think the price was high bc the tribes celebration going on for the weekend.
