This was filled as a hotel, but was a drive up to the room motel. It was two floors with a very tall, dilapidated walkway upstairs. I would not recommend staying here.

Great find! We were at Crazy Horse and found this randomly. The room was nice and the bathroom were clean. They have free laundry machines to use with everything. The staffing took care of us as soon we came in and gave us the best deal they had. The coffee shop next door is awesome as well for breakfast

A lovely place to stay

The hotel is cute with a breakfast business next door. The hotel provides an indoor pool and an outdoor pool, equipment for outdoor activities and laundry service. On the last morning I discovered there are video games, board games and a hot tub. I wish I located these items earlier in my stay.

If you are looking for a Marriott, it isn’t this. BUT, this places oozes charm and friendliness. The rooms are clean and comfortable, and there are wonderful amenities that you won’t get at a Marriott. (And I love Marriotts!) You can do your laundry here for free! There is a playground and a giant chess game. We will probably be back!

Day two of our trip/adventure and the second night staying at an unbranded hotel. We were hopeful, but hesitant based upon our experience the night before at a different property. People at this property have it right. By people, I don’t just mean the owners who developed the property, but moreso the entire cast. I don’t know about you, but I value being greeted with a smile and by someone who doesn’t have a script, but engages in genuine conversation. Additional staff that we encountered (cleaners, maintenance) were friendly as well. The property is well maintained with pools, hot tubs, game areas, etc. We place value in the three c’s: clean, comfortable, and “cwiet”, this property checked all three boxes! And, lastly, the guests that we encountered got it as well. The layout and design of the property lent itself to friendly interactions. Quite often getting there gets in the way of who you meet and what you see and experience.
