Decent place, very convenient to most anything you could want or need. Friendly staff, breakfast was ok. Not a fan of Wyndhams $50 incidental hold charge, they take too long to refund it in my opinion.

The first room we got had a mold and moisture problem. The clerk did get us another room which was better, but for $175 per night I had higher expectations. Would not stay there again.

The staff during check in was somewhat rude. I don’t appreciate getting talked down to. Also, keys to room stopped working and had to have them scanned again. Hotel is overpriced with what it offers.

BED BUGS. I’ll start with the reason we put all our items in trash bags at 3 am and drove home. My husband and I were staying here with our three young daughters and I woke up to a large bed bug running down my arm. We pulled back the sheets and sure enough old blood droplets. Went to the front desk to report this and he was less than helpful. When we first got there to check in he was scrolling on his phone in the side room with his bare feet kicked up on the desk. Checked in at 9 and left at 3 am. BOOK ANYWHERE ELSE.

Was pleasantly surprised room was refreshed for a 2 night stay. Many places no longer offer that service. Liked the egg patties, sausages and waffles for a hot breakfast. Extremely reasonable prices compared to other nearby motels. To get to it, can be easy to miss the drive as many drives close by. Maybe have a sign at the end of the drive so easier to find. Would definitely stay again.
