Our room was clean and pleasant, our stay was fantastic for as short notice as we had to get this room. The staff also helped me print something out that I needed for an event I was in town for, as I'd printed too small and they were so gracious to assist. Thank you all again for our stay, we'll see you next time we are in town to visit family.

This was an overnight trip. Overall, I would say the hotel and experience was good. I know this is a pet friendly hotel but one guest had two VERY large size dogs. Not sure if there's a limit or the hotel has certain rooms for pets.

Love the wood floors instead of carpet in most hotels. The room smelled fresh like a natural scent instead of chemical cleaners like other hotels. That’s a big deal to me and the HVAC unit is quiet and works well. I would always suggest updating the bathroom a little bit.
