Staff were responsive & overall, great. Liked that housekeeping were always
We were thrilled with our stay! Gharinder at the front desk went above and beyond to make sure we had a great stay. The breakfast was great and getting a later checkout time was easy, even on short notice.
The room was spacious, easy check-in and check-out, the pool hours were long and the kids loved the splash area and the buckets, and the breakfast was open early. It's not the fancy-est hotel, but it was just what we needed when we needed it at a great price.
The room was amazing. Clean, spacious and quiet. By far one of the best we have stayed at.
Staff was friendly as well.
Only concern was the wait for the security deposit.
beautiful place very clean staff we great breakfast was very good a lot of variety this is our 3rd time at this hotel, and we were never disappointed, and it won't be last

Courteous staff, immaculately clean rooms, comfortable beds, great breakfast.
Yes the rooms were very clean, And yes the staff were very friendly and eager and quick to help.
Unfortunately my husband got very sick, however I did not and we realized the only difference was that he ate from the breakfast buffet, so perhaps check the sanitation of the food prep and buffet line.
Simple but good breakfast, the room was comfortable, the parking was pretty big, just the lobby is under renovation, so we had to use the next hotel attached to this one to get there, but in general, good experience
