Staff was amazing. They came in every day and kept the room very nice. Management is nice too. Nice location to everything I needed. It’s quiet too. The pool and everything in the rec area looked good, working, and clean. If you like to walk, the neighborhood was safe, and plenty of area to walk. McDonald’s, Walmart, Arby’s, Mexican, pizza, and Casey’s was near by please much more. Breakfast tasted good, very simple. Eggs, sausage sticks, cereal, apples, bagels, toast, oj, apple juice, coffee. Needs work: Rooms have too much moisture. Black mold growing below shower head, along with cracks in the same wall and on the ceiling. Another safety concern, Internet should be locked down and require a passcode. Very unsafe for others who want to use it with hackers…plus you need to monitor it for unsafe recording devices. Open networks aren’t safe.

The staff was great! The whole stay was Great! Very clean Very quiet, The ONLY reason I say 4 stars is because the hot tub is advertised and it was shut down and they have no intentions on fixing it, which is fine but don't advertise it then.
