This is a very nice facility. Opened in August of 2025, it was only six months old at the time of my stay so it is, and still looked, new and spotless. Would definitely stay here again.

Looked like a complete brand new hotel. The staff was courteous and professional at all times. The breakfast didn’t have many choices, but I’d say it is way better than any other hotel I’ve stayed at. 10/10.

6/10 Good

The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. My only piece of feedback is our room had lady bugs on the ceiling and house flies everywhere. Other than that, check in/out was smooth and we had no other issues
