17.2/10 Exceptional! (581 reviews)
A awesome place to stay whether just traveling through or staying in the area. Easy on and off the Interstate with lots of parking. A great staff from front desk to breakfast servers. Everyone made us feel at home. The rooms are spacious and feels like you are home not a hotel/motel/suite. Will definitely stay here again in the near future and recommend anyone traveling through to stop in and stay the night.
