Categories

Cleanliness
6.08
Multiple reviews mention stains on furniture and carpeting, bad bathroom smells, missed housekeeping tasks and an overall perception of rooms not being properly cleaned.
Service
9.05
Staff are frequently described as friendly, extremely helpful and professional; a few isolated negative notes (miserable shuttle driver, indifferent staff on an AC issue) but overall service is a consistent positive in the reviews.
Location
9.09
Location is repeatedly praised for proximity to the interstate, exits, shopping and dining—convenient for most guests.
Room Quality
6.54
Several comments about hard/uncomfortable beds, poor lighting, noisy AC/toilet, and some rooms having stains or worn carpeting — room sizes noted as spacious in a few reviews but physical condition is mixed.
Amenities
8.57
Pool/hot tub area receives positive mentions and there is shuttle service and on-site dining; some issues noted (hot tub needing resurfacing, lounge closing early, paid breakfast) but amenities are generally good.
Value for Money
7.53
Mixed signals: guests appreciate service and location, but paying for breakfast, limited cash options, and room condition issues reduce perceived value for some travelers.
Food and Beverage
8.08
Dinner is praised in at least one review and breakfast is described as 'okay' by others; presence of an on-site restaurant is a plus though some guests dislike paying for breakfast or find lounge hours limited.
Overall Experience
9.05
Many guests report 'great' or 'always a great stay' with friendly staff and comfortable stays despite recurring issues for some (cleanliness, bed comfort). On balance, the overall guest sentiment skews positive.

Pros:

The rooms are very clean. However the beds are really hard and uncomfortable. The room set up was inconvenient. And you have to walk through the restaurant to get to your room.
