The physical appearance could use some updating. Very clean!! We stayed in room 239 and it was a large adjoining room which was very nice, mattress was comfortable, room was in a quiet location which overlooked a sm pond and parking area by Anthony’s. Staff was very friendly and service orientated.

The property has no function room keys. Every time I need to access the room, I have to go to the front desk and ask for someone to meet me up and open the room door .. a major security concern and inconvenience. What is somebody comes up and claim my room !? There is no check ID or anything at the desk or by the room.

Breakfast was bad. Just plain bad. Powdered eggs tasted like nothing. Bacon was transparent.. never knew you could slice bacon thin enough to see thru. Huh! Imagine that. Biscuits undercooked. Gravy gritty and flavorless. I'ld rather go hungry than endure that again.
