Disliked: Amenities
The pool and hot tub are open and fully visible to public in the parking lot so there’s complete lack of privacy. The bathroom lacks a door. Floor boards warped in places. Acoustics suboptimal as one can hear outside noise as well as feel the footsteps. Breakfast offerings were decent. The staff esp Joseph at check in was friendly.

Staff is nice. Room needs an update. The toilet was tiny - just 15" tall. Not suitable for a "nice" hotel. Parking is a bit limited ... if i parked in front of my room, in a marked space, i blocked in a car set at 90* from my space. Street parking is available for RVs or trucks.

Business traveler
Liked: Room comfort
The bed was reasonably comfortable as were the pillows. The shower curtain was bad. Need two layers - one inside one outside. Water spray/bounced out of the corners because of this. Front desk staff was courteous and friendly. Hot meal products eggs and sausage leave a lot to be desired. Fruit was fresh.

Glad I stayed here! My room was nicely decorated & well maintained. I appreciated the microwave, mini-fridge, & small inclusions like makeup remover & earplugs. (Didn't need the earplugs, thankfully.) Breakfast buffet was good, with multiple hot items. Would stay here again.
