The hotel was very nice outside and inside. I only stayed 1 night and we got in late. They did allow me to have a late checkout time at noon. (we did leave well before that) We had drinks and nachos in the Gardner grill. Very good drinks and the nachos were also very good. I do wish they provided complimentary coffee for guests in the morning. Instead , you can buy coffee pods for the coffee pot in the hotel room for a couple of dollars each. Overall it was a comfortable night's stay.

Staff were helpful. We arrived late and tired. The hot tub was wonderful. The bonus of a washer and dryer was unexpected and welcome. The area is quiet.
