I don't know what everybody else is talking about, but the hotel is nice, the beds were comfortable. I enjoyed my stay. They were doing some construction but you could barely hear it. I heard the kids in the pool over the construction. Overall nice hotel, will be coming back!

The hotel was great, Clean and the staff was friendly! The free breakfast was amazing! And the kids loved the pool! There’s a dollar general close to it which was perfect for the little things we forgot to pack and there was a cool Robert Wadlow Statue close to the hotel as well. Overall it was a 10/10 for us

My only complaint is with the breakfast. One morning they had French fries for breakfast. They had gray two mornings but only had biscuits with it one day. Breakfast could certainly use some improvement.

The biggest disappointment was that they did not want to give me two rooms with double beds that I reserved. I was at the counter for 30 min at least. I believe I was over charged as well. They are remodeling , so it is not the cleanest.
