Although it’s a fairly remote area, it was a convenient location for my travels. And, the price is right. On the negative side, the breakfast buffet is limited although the food was good. On the negative side, the carpeted floors in my room apparently are not shampooed very often and my feet were totally black from walking on the floors.

Fantastic place to stay. I checked in probably around 8:30 or 9 o’clock at night and unfortunately the only room left was a pet friendly room. I do have two dogs and I’m used to pet smells so I rolled with it. I definitely smelled a pet smell though, but can’t complain for that being the only choice I had. If you don’t mind pet odors then the pet friendly rooms are fine but I would definitely stay there again maybe just not in a pet room. Lol.

Very nice property and super friendly staff. Apparent number of upgrades and refreshes both completed and underway. This was just a quick stopover but I would definitely recommend this hotel.
