Staff wouldn’t give my elderly mother a towel at the pool because she said the pool was closing soon. My elderly mother walked up to room cold and wet in swim suit, rude staff.

The property is undergoing renovation which I knew when we booked it. Outside in the parking lot was alot of old furniture and construction debris; however,inside totally changed the outside image. The staff were great and our room was warm comfy and cozy. Breakfast was excellent especially the omlette. We will mark this on our stay map for future travels. Thank you.

Staff was very friendly and helpful and breakfast was hot and pretty tasty. Interior was just a bit dingy and bed was a little uncomfortable. All in all, fine for a night off the road on a long trip.

Disappointed
The hotel was disappointing. The carpet leading to our room on the second floor was dirty and stained. There was some construction taking place outside the hotel but the uncleanliness was not from this. The carpet was old and dirty which left an overall odor. Worst were the towels!! All of our towels were yellow and dingy which made me question the entire room. The towels were the worse part of our stay.
