Cleanliness
7.8
Many guests reported rooms and bathrooms as clean, but there are recurring issues: carpet wear and stains, fingerprints and possible mold in bathroom corners, and at least one report of a slow bathtub drain.
Service
10
Staff are consistently described as friendly, helpful and engaged; guests appreciated staff interactions and conveniences like a 12 PM checkout. Staff sometimes had limited ability to resolve issues (e.g., noise, construction).
Location
8
Location is convenient for the trail and Phelps Park and generally praised, but multiple reviews note significant road construction at the entrance that affected access and perception.
Room Quality
7.7
Beds were frequently called comfortable and rooms described as comfy, but complaints include worn/stained carpet, noisy rooms (notably room 101), and isolated plumbing/drain issues.
Amenities
9
Pool and hot tub received positive remarks (clean and warm) and common areas/breakfast space were well organized; overall amenities are a strong point for families.
Value for Money
6.8
Several guests felt the hotel was overpriced for what was provided — concerns about pricing, cleaning frequency (every third day) and tipping envelopes reduced perceived value.
Food and Beverage
9.9
Breakfast is a standout repeatedly described as awesome, delightful and delicious (including biscuits & gravy); only minor remarks about TV programming in the dining area.
Overall Experience
8.8
Most stays were described as relaxing or wonderful with clean rooms and strong staff service; notable negatives (construction, value, occasional maintenance/noise) temper the overall score.

Stay was ok.
Pros:

For the most part our stay was positive. The room was clean however the carpet is showing wear and will need to replaced soon. We were informed that they clean the rooms every third day and not every day which I think is odd. There was also an envelope to tip the cleaning staff which is odd given that our stay was for 3 nights therefore they didn’t clean anything. Asking for a tip for having a clean room at arrival is ridiculous since that is an expectation of staying at a hotel. Also, when we were eating breakfast on Saturday, the TV in the dining room had 3 infomercials playing on loop. Please turn off the TV if that is all that you can provide. The staff were friendly on the little interaction that we had with them. Overall, an adequate accommodation was provided.

Not a good value
Pros:

The staff were friendly and accommodating. The room was clean and quiet. The carpet covering the stairs at the front entrance had a lot of stains and needed a good cleaning or replacing. They also clean rooms only every third day. For the money they charged, I would hope they could clean the rooms a little more frequently. The bed was uncomfortable.
