We stayed here for 3 nights in July and we loved it! We often travel this route to see family so we will definitely stay at this location again. The beds were comfortable and the room was very clean. It's in a great location too, near the highways and dining options are plentiful within a mile. The property is very well maintained and the staff was friendly. Best of all, we slept soundly because it was nice and quiet. We were very pleased with this property and had no complaints. Highly recommended.
