The hotel features a relaxing spa area with a jacuzzi, sauna, and pool, providing a serene experience for guests. (9 reviews)
We were really pleasantly surprised at how nice this hotel was compared to the other motels in the area. We had a courtyard/creek view with a semi private seating area and also the ability to go to one of many other seating areas along the creek.
The breakfast was a decent buffet to help us get on the road without being hungry. And the Caesar salad with chicken that I had was delicious.
We would come back again.

I have wanted to stay here for the longest time and finally had a chance to do so and it did not disappoint. The hotel was very clean, decorated beautifully and we enjoyed some wine and the best pizza we have had in a long time while sitting outside by the creek.

Great place to stay and was a nice setting. They had a hot tub and the landscaping and seating areas outside were reallly nice to have. The breakfast was definitely sufficient, but I felt quality could have been better. Front desk was nice and the hotel in general was very comfortable.

This was a great stay for us. The beautiful creek running through made for a perfect chill happy hour. The kids loved the park across the street. The pool was closed during our stay for prep for summer but we enjoyed the jacuzzi. Great breakfast and beautiful art throughout.

This was well worth the higher price than others. The rooms are large, the breakfast is actually good, with good coffee, better than standard diy waffles. We will always stay here in the future when on a 395 road trip!
