“Andrea and Lu provided exceptional service and treated us like extended family, but the ones you actually like. While the property is undergoing renovations, it wasn't intrusive or disruptive to our stay, at all. We are looking forward to our next visit!”

“Nice clean hotel still undergoing remodel have a few things to complete. Had a couple issue with non working blow dryer and iron. Overall great value for the area, once remodel is complete should be a nice place to stay.”
