Very comfortable, clean, great breakfast

Clean, comfortable, nice staff, breakfast was excellent and bean to cup coffee was so good. The only problem was the air conditioner was very noisy and well not on the hotel but the highway noise was a bit much at time. I used ear plugs.

In general, everything was fine. Check in was fast and efficient. Staff friendly and alert to guest needs. Only issue I had was that the bathroom was not very clean, particularly the shower floor. Reported it to staff. Other than that, all good.
Shower floor not properly cleaned, only issue.

It was adequate. I couldn't get a receipt, because the staff didn't give me one. I was told that Expedia would give me a receipt. It should not be hard to get a receipt (folio), as soon as you check out of a hotel. That is your record that you actually left everything intact and on time. I still need my receipt.

Absolutely loved it.

We absolutely loved this hotel! We had the pool to ourselves, the breakfast was really great, there’s always someone at the desk willing to help. I do wish that the pillows were a bit more firm, but next time I’ll have to bring my own. Only downside about the 2nd floor was being under someone else’s room but you get that just about anywhere.
