Categories

Cleanliness
7.5
Mostly reported as very clean and updated across many reviews, but there are notable exceptions (one report of roaches, some comments about streaky mopped floors and missed high-touch areas) that lower the score.
Service
9.5
Numerous mentions of friendly and helpful staff (including returning a lost purse intact); a few reports of a mediocre or seated front desk agent and a check-in/refund issue temper this slightly but overall service is a strong positive.
Location
7.5
Convenient for events and travel, but several guests noted traffic noise due to proximity to a busy road and recurring parking constraints (large towing trucks taking spots), which reduces the location score.
Room Quality
9
Beds repeatedly described as very comfortable and rooms updated; occasional issues such as a loud AC unit for light sleepers and some lack of blackout curtains were reported but overall room comfort is high.
Amenities
8
Positive mentions of a nice pool, complimentary bottled water, and breakfast offerings; some amenity negatives include a hot tub that wasn't hot and non-functioning bubbles and limited parking affecting access to amenities.
Value for Money
8
Many guests felt the stay was worthwhile for the price (good breakfast, clean rooms, comfortable beds); a few service hiccups (refund/late-check issue) and amenity shortcomings slightly reduce perceived value.
Food and Beverage
9
Breakfast repeatedly praised as good to excellent and a valued perk; one reviewer called it average but usable. Overall F&B (primarily breakfast) is a clear positive.
Overall Experience
9.5
The majority of reviews describe a pleasant, quiet, clean and comfortable stay with excellent staff interactions and repeat visits; isolated negatives (roaches, occasional check-in/amenity issues) are outweighed by consistent positive experiences.

Pros:

There was a lot of traffic noise. The hotel sits where the speed limit on the road goes from 35 mph to 55 mph. Service, cleanliness and the swimming pool were great.

Pros:

Enjoyed the extra space in the room. The most frequently touched areas are what hotels need to focus to wipe down in the rooms, aside from that the property and room is acceptably clean. The check-in process was mediocre, the front desk agent stayed seated, did not smile, did not inform where to locate the elevators, overall not impressed.

Honest staff meant a lot!
Pros:

Amazing staff. My 93 year old mother-in-law left her purse in the dining area on day one of the trip. We called once noticed later in the day. We were able to pickup her purse three days later with everything intact. Thank you front desk and manager!

Pros:

I was pleasantly surprised with this property. It was very clean and updated. The bed was very comfortable. The complimentary breakfast was average but did the trick. The only complaint I have for the room that we were in was that the AC unit was a bit loud so, if you are a light sleeper, it may be an issue. Luckily, my wife and I are sound sleepers and was able to get a good night's sleep.

Everything was fine as far as the room and the property. Enough room for 2 humans and 2 dogs. Easy access to bring them in and out. There could me more parking available, especially when large towing trucks park for the night.
