4.5 Stars: The restaurant and the kindness of all the staff. Even though we were there for a tournament, the patio deck was a wonderful surprise. It was very accessible to the highway and other stores. The cleaning staff is very helpful. We will stay there and feel that families will enjoy the Inn. When the restaurant hours were not early enough for breakfast, the receptionist jumped on his computer and found us options that were not fast food and would fuel a competitive athlete. Thank You!! :-D

Resturant was excellent. Staff were friendly. The bed was comfortable. Outside the room wifi was fine, but soon as we entered the room signal strength dropped to1bar. It was then unreliable. Walking about in the room with my white socks the bottom of the socks turned brown.

Room was in moderate condition. The room above us could be heard day and night. There we vacuums, drills, and heavy walking into the later hours. Sounded like staff was living up there. Everything a bit dated as well.

The last 2 times I’ve stayed here there wasn’t a top sheet on my bed. Only a bottom one and a sheeted duvet cover. I highly doubt that the cleaning staff removes the duvet cover sheets daily to wash thus I’m extremely concerned about the cleanliness and sanitization of the bedding

The room smell, not sure when it was last used, but i had to open the doors to air it out for a hour. Also the shower curtain was ripped. Finally to make things worse, the smoke alarm battery started chirping in the morning
