My family & I visited during Thanksgiving week 2025. Top notch customer service far exceeded the 'first-look' impression. We, along with other guests, were accommodated with early check-ins (for those of us that travel long distances by car, this in itself is great). We were greeted with excellent customer service - met with friendly smiles, professional service, knowledge about the hotel and amenities - check-in was a breeze. During our stay, Linda? (GM) and the entire staff went above and beyond in making our stay a very pleasant one - from initially helping with changing our room to a lower floor bec we brought our senior fur baby and lower floor = closer to "outside activities" to then patiently listening to me relaying my husband's annoyance about early morning guest noise (small kids in the room above us, also enjoying their vacation as they should). We even extended our stay one more day. Now, back to the 'first-look' impression - the hotel is dated, could really use updates. HOWEVER, if you can (I strongly encourage you to do so) look past the aesthetics, the hotel is a top choice stay - friendly/professional/very responsive & attentive staff, gym & pool on site, restaurant on site (very affordable, family-friendly pricing), lounge on site, meeting spaces on site, clean/very spacious rooms, pet-friendly hotel with no smell of pets and/or accidents anywhere, very close to major attractions/restaurants/shopping yet far enough away for a quiet, relaxing stay, and the property/grounds is large enough for a nice walk with a small memorial 'park' literally 2-5 steps from the parking lot. Last thing, regardless of the time we returned at night to the hotel, staff was always present/seen/attentive (so that was a level of safety/comfort for me). My husband & I do forsee a future stay. (For the owners, please invest in upgrades, I think your ROI will be greatly rewarded)
