Beautiful older hotel. The front desk staff was wonderful. A young man named Cade checked us in and was very professional. How often do you get champagne at check in? Wonderful surprise. Nice restaurant on site. The pool was the perfect temperature. Well maintained and clean. They have an adult only hour which is a bonus. Didn't use hot tub but it looked nice. Hallways were quiet despite a conference being held there. Room was very clean. In room phones and room service too. Nice shower with ample hot water!! Bed was extremely comfortable. Would definitely stay here again.

I stayed on property for the convenience of a work event onsite. The air conditioning was not working in the hotel and no one checking in was made aware until we complained that the room were almost 80 degrees. The hotel brought a fan to our room but we were forced to leave the window open and listen to road noise all night so that the room temp was tolerable. The hotel is definitely showing its age.

I stayed for two nights. First night was great and quiet. Second night was the opposite until 1am on a Tuesday. The connecting doors between rooms are thin and you can hear EVERYTHING through them. Just normal talking is extremely audible and just ruined the second night for me. Friendly staff, room was clean, and it’s close to UM campus, a mall, as well as the highway. It was not the worst stay I’ve had, and it wasn’t the best. It is average with some upsides. Would return if there was a good price for a room and take my chances with noisy neighbors.
