Comfortable beds. Clean. Cost effective. We were in town for a memorial service so didn't get a chance to use the pool or hot tub, but they looked inviting. There was also a nice playground and even a dog park. I would stay there again.

The staff was very nice and the rooms were clean. Some of the outlets did not work at all. If you are looking for quiet, this is not the place. The walls were thin so I heard crying children and adults talking outside the door all night.

Not easy to see sign for hotel coming off of I-95. The outside of property gardens, pool area and children’s area is great. The front 2 stories outside looked a little outdated. Maybe paint a nice colour and doors all the same. Although the furniture was older, it was adequate and whole room was clean. Enjoyed our stay and breakfast was nice
