Great property for the price. Very accommodating. Room smelled musty a little but a quick febreeze spray fixed that. Fit the entire family. Water pressure was great in the showers and staff was awesome. Will definitely stay again when in the area.

Nice place to stay, recently updated room that was huge. Bathroom was also big but lacked place to hang your towel near the shower or a shelf in the shower to hold your soap, shampoo or conditioner. Just needs some finishing touches but would stay here again.
