Fantastic stay. Clean rooms. Great Staff!

spacious rooms friendly staff heated pool fresh breakfast

I loved the spacious, clean rooms. I especially liked the no carpet. The beds were super comfortable. The staff was always friendly and helpful. The heated pool was amazing, and the breakfast offered fresh choices. I love that they refill food until closing. I highly recommend this place.

The room had a slight furniture polish smell when I first entered. I left the door open for a bit, and the smell was manageable after that.
