Great value for the price!

A very lovely hotel! A lot better than I was expecting for the price. Staff was really nice. I like that they had a filtered water bottle filling station by the front desk. I wish every hotel had this. I didn't have time for breakfast, had to get on the road.

Helpful front desk staff. Able to answer questions as they came up. Allowed a late checkout at 1:00 p.m. Would love to have a heated swimming pool at any hotel...

6/10 Good

Great place, but...

This is my 3rd stay. The staff is consistently awesome. Rooms are very clean and comfortable. But...my first 2 stays were on the back side of the property - away from the street. This time, i was on the front side. The noise from traffic, street racers and the non-stop outside music from the nearby convenience store plus loud people outside made sleep nearly impossible. Sorry to cross this place off my list.

Good stay

I was in town to see my dad at the Adventist hospital. Location is good for hospital visits. There’s a gas station and Chinese’s buffet in the Sam parking lot. It was quiet all night. The free breakfast wasn’t that great but the coffee was tasty.
