Under construction/new management
This is a decent hotel but you get what you pay for. The hotel is still under construction but the rooms were a nice size and the service was friendly, thou not very accommodating ( asked for fresh towels and thought they would send housekeeping with them, after a while we called back and they asked us to come retrieve the towels from the front desk). The hotel does not have an elevator so be prepared to lug you bags up stairs. Overall, it met our needs for a last minute trip, it was clean and economical.

The hotel put a hold on the payment in the evening before check in. At the time of the check in my card was charged, again. This put a freeze on duplicate payment. Had I used my debit card this would have been a problem. It is not acceptable to hold people's money once they pay. This practice is not acceptable and very concerning. Eventually I got my credit back but had to wait over 48 hours to see it return to my card. The facility is in desperate need for an overall makeover. Change the carpet, clean and fix the pool. LInens were clean and the room was accomodating but cleaining some wall stains and cealing watermarks would go a long way. The tub was worn with pealing paint. Breakfast was ok but the waterdown macchine coffee was dissapointing. The staff was friendly and polite and that is a plus. Good customer service is always refresing.

Not fun.
They couldn't find our reservation for about 30 minutes even with the confirmation number. Finally figured it out. My room reeked of cigarette smoke, years of smoke that didn't fade during the lame renovation. The door didn't have two locks which made me feel unsafe the entire stay.

Room was clean, bed was comfortable. Wi-Fi was poor- couldn’t do any work. TV wouldn’t work. Shower pressure was good, but never really got hot.

The listing said the hotel was pet friendly, but when I got there they would not accept a cat. The front desk employee was not trained well in how to respond to my frustration and just kept saying their website said not cats (but i didn't book on their website). I talked Expedia and they agreed the listing needed to be updated, but I didn't need a rude front desk person at the end of a long drive and then I had a find another place to stay last minute. I'd skip this location if I had pets--even if you don't have pets, it doesn't seem great.
