Categories

Cleanliness
6.5
Mixed reports: several guests called rooms and bathrooms clean, but there are multiple specific complaints (worn/unclean bathroom, bed bug report, pool area incident with soiled diaper, occasional lack of towels) that lower this score.
Service
9
Generally strong: many mentions of pleasant, helpful and above-and-beyond staff (refunds, proactive clerks, friendly breakfast attendant). A few notes about less friendly evening staff and an unfriendly clerk at check-in, but overall service is a clear strength.
Location
9
Consistently praised: convenient for hospital visits, close to restaurants and right off the highway — location repeatedly described as ideal for guests' needs.
Room Quality
7
Mixed room experiences: several guests found beds comfortable, but others reported hard beds, noisy metal bed frames, poor pillows, broken fixtures and loose plugs. Overall average room quality with some notable negatives.
Amenities
8
Positive mentions for pool, cookies in the lobby, popsicles and a good continental breakfast; some issues noted (no pool towels available, suggestions to upgrade pancake machines). Amenities are generally good but not perfect.
Value for Money
7.5
Mostly acceptable value with a few price complaints and a guest upset about bereavement discount policy; not a dominant theme but slightly below the stronger categories.
Food and Beverage
8
Breakfast repeatedly described as good and a highlight for many guests, though some requested more variety and criticized specific items (thin ham). Overall positive but with room for improvement.
Overall Experience
8.2
Overall stays were characterized as good/comfortable by many guests thanks to location, service and breakfast, tempered by intermittent cleanliness and room-quality issues; net experience is favorable.

Pros:

The room was spacious and plenty of parking.

Cons:

The breakfast could have had more options and need to upgrade to the pancake machines. The metal bed frames made a lot of noise, there were very few towels in the bathroom, and the plumbing needed some attention. While the staff was efficient, they were not very friendly and seemed like they would rather be anyplace else than at work.

Pros:

The location was perfect for my needs at the hospital. The staff was so nice. They even had Popsicles for my diet.

Cons:

The beds were a bit hard and kind of hard for my mom to get into. But she's disabled so that's not really your fault

Pros:

I attended Breezy Bowl and made a last minute reservation. The clerk said that my room wasn’t ready. After I explained that I probably wouldn’t return until after midnight, he personally went to check for a room that was cleaned and ready. I appreciate him going above and beyond. That level of customer service goes a long way. 💯
