This hotel is an alright place to stay for a night. They only had double beds though, so that's something that I didn't care for. Don't ask for the poolside rooms if you plan to go to bed before midnight, because it's not going to happen! The rooms would be much better with a bathroom that's bigger than a closet... More

Very nice people working the hotel under difficult circumstances due to a football weekend for Notre Dame. There was absolutely no hot or even warm water in the shower in the morning, and we had a junior suite that faced towards the pool. The pool has a ton of chlorine in it, which made the ahlls smell. Breakfast spread is... More

From the dirty stairsteps to the black mold, this was not a pleasant hotel. The rooms were adequate, but the bathroom was very small. The service was okay.

We stopped here on a road trip, not knowing the hotel or the chain. We didn't have any expectations, it was an inadvertent late-night stop at any hotel. Well, we were completely surprised by the hotel: clean with good quality bedding, towels and linens. Lovely pool, great poolside room and waffles for breakfast. So much quality for the price and...

The hotel was surprisingly nice and newer than expected. I had a suite that was spacious and clean. I was expecting a cheaper lower quality room that I got (even though it was nearly 200$ a night). Service, however was lackluster. The hallways of the hotel are not air conditioned and were extremely hot in the summer. The room, on... More

This is one of my favorite Choice Hotels location. The staff are always friendly and go out of the way to make you happy. For the price you get more than expected. The rooms are average in size with the exception of the larger suite that's available. This location has a lounge for food and drinks all the while receiving... More

Stayed for one night and that was more than enough. The bathroom counter and sink were very small, beds were not comfortable, and room lighting was terrible. The lobby and swimming pool area are very nice but the rooms were not up to par for the price. At most I would expect to pay only around $60-65.00 a night here,... More

We stayed here overnight before heading over to the Blue Chip Casino and Resort. The motel is kind of old but clean. They have a beautiful inside pool area with rooms right off the pool....would make a great place to have a little get together....this leads me to my one "thing" it is not really a complaint...it is a thing....

My family stayed with another family, we each had 9yr olds and 12yr olds. Room was clean and updated. Bedding was comfortable and pool area was very nice. Contin. breakfast was somewhat small but not bad. I would stay at this hotel again without hesitation.

My husband and I stayed one night 3/26/11. There was a strong sewer smell from the bathroom. Room 123. The hotel attracts "questionable" clientele. We didn't sleep well because of the yelling outside our door. We couldn't park outside our room because of an inconsiderate guest who took up 2 spaces. When we checked out @ 9:00 am on the... More
