The tv didn’t work, had to move us to another room. Housekeeping woke us up early saying the room was marked as no one in it. Then 39 minutes later the room phone rang and woke us again. Hotel very noisy.

Nice experience

easy check in, nice and clean room. The only thing to be aware of is a large truck stop directly across the road, but while you can hear it if your TV isn't on, it wasn't loud enough to wake me up. Hot tub, and pool area were clean and working well.

Truck noise is awful

The hotel and employees were great. The problem is the hotel is built on a 4 lane truck route. The truck noise was horrendous. I used a white noise app and that helped but nothing could muffle the sound of a car drag racing down the highway at all hours of the night!

This was a nice place to stay and the staff was very friendly. They did ask for a card to put on file for a damage fee, which is normal but was charged 20.00 and thought it would be credited back, it was not. but everything was nice and it was a good stay.

We stay at a lot of hotels, and this has been one of our top 5 stays. Even my kids kept raving on how great the hotel and the staff were. Upon arriving the gentlemen at the front desk gave us waters and knew with the amount of people we had we would need a few extra things. So he brought them to our room! He brought more than I asked for even. Every time we needed something the staff worked quickly to help. The room was spacious and clean, and we were so comfortable we didn't want to leave. We will be back!
