We came down at 845 for breakfast. The two ladies were working as fast as they could but, trying to keep up with those taking 6 bananas at once crowd was a bit overwhelming so, many things including the coffee needed replenishing. They were gracious and speedily refilled things when they were alerted to the void.

The check in clerk was unable to answer questions about the property, e.g. parking location and availability, since she was "from another hotel... just filling-in". Other clerks were very knowledgeable and helpful. Clean, quiet, good sized room and bathroom. Biggest issue for everyone on site was the one, lone elevator which was exceedingly slow and sometimes skipped stops.

The hotel itself was nice, but it’s clearly understaffed. When we arrived to check in, there was no one at the front desk, and we waited about 15 minutes before someone showed up. Later in the evening, closer to 8:30, our friend went to the pool and waited around 10 minutes trying to get towels. When we arrived, we told her to go back to the pool and that we’d grab them for her—but after waiting another 20 minutes, my husband ended up going into the back room himself to get the towels. They definitely need more staff on hand to provide timely service.

Decent spot for quick stay.

The staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was good. But we booked a room for 6 (2 Doubles and a sofa), and the room had only 1 extra set of pillows and sheets etc for the sofa. So we had to ask for extra sheets and pillows rather than them being prepared. I was also dumbfounded that for their whole parking complex, that they had only ONE handicap parking spot. We were able to use it on our 1st night stay but werent lucky on our 2nd night. Lots of fast food options within 5 mins of driving and a casino too. Has a small pool that was relatively clean.
