I stayed here on business as I was teaching a class at the local school system, The outside of the hotel is older, when I went to the front desk the woman there was real polite. Got my room key went to my room, and it was immaculate, nice big bed, flat screen tv, fridge and microwave, and coffee pot, I was impressed. The internet connection was good. Had a crazy amount of channels for a hotel, they do need to update there channel guide in their room binders. Had a Mexican restaurant next door, but I didnt use it but locals said it was good. I have to travel back here in Dec, and will definitely stay again. Great job to the staff and management!

The exterior of the hotel is dated, but the lobby and the rooms have been updated probably in the past three years.

Our sleeping arrangement had a pullout and a queen size bed. We did not use the pull out. The queen size bed slept well, at least as well as a hotel bed can. The only complaint that we had was that the bed could not be pushed against the wall since there were several plugs in the outlet behind the bed. We had to sleep towards the foot of the bed in order to avoid knocking the plugs out. The floor of that gap was also dirty.

Now on to the bathroom. The sink and toilet areas were clean, but the shower area needed some attention. Paint from the renovation was on a tub wall. The shower curtain had mildew. The drop ceiling was dirty. There was hair on the floor of the tub when we arrived.

We did not use the outdoor pool, but it seemed to be very popular with the children staying there.

The desk staff was friendly at check-in and check-out.

The variety of channels on the cable on the LCD television was more than sufficient. It was probably better than more expensive hotels.

It was not a bad hotel. I've been in much worse and I've been in much better. If you are looking for a cheap night's stay and you aren't picky, I would say that this hotel would be fine.

The food at the attached Mexican restaurant, El Rio Grande was great and was reasonably priced! If you are staying at the hotel, I would recommend that you eat there.

After being turned down by a Best Western in the area (full capacity) and not wanting to deal with hotels in the late evening we stopped here about 4 in the afternoon. As soon as we walked to check in, the clerk at the front desk informed us that there were only two rooms left, one smoking and one non-smoking. We immediately took the non-smoking. A guy who came in a few minutes after us got the last room. This was a typical Tuesday? Anyway the room was nice. It had a big refrigerator, flat screen TV (which had cable and the cable went out several times during the evening/night and it wasn't rainy/stormy or anything). Laundry on site, a nice pool with a bar/restaurant (although the pool was crowded the WHOLE night, I didn't get a chance to go in). Also a whirlpool and wading pool for the young ones. Breakfast was complimentary, with the usual bagels/bread stuff, cereal, waffles, eggs, yogurt, juice, etc... In the breakfast room I heard a few guests complaining of a couple of drunk folk making noise outside their rooms at 4 or 5 in the morning. Lucky for us we weren't bothered. The numbering of the rooms seems weird as the even numbers were on one side of the building and the odd numbers on the other side. No elevator. Short flight of steps for those with luggage (I'd say about 20 steps split into 10). Decent staff. Clean rooms. Overall very nice. If I was in the area I'd probably stay here again.

We stayed overnight at this hotel on a visit to Holiday World. We didn't use the pool or any other amenities as we were all very tired from our day out. The rooms were clean, beds comfy, and we had no issues. The doors do open to the outside, rather than an inside hall, but we were fine with that. The breakfast buffet was great. We would say here again. There is also a restaurant on site, but we didn't eat there, so we couldn't comment on that.
