Clean, new hotel on SPI
This new hotel was the nicest stay on our budget winter roadtrip. Very clean and enjoyable, especially for the price. Simple amenities within the room, like a small microwave and table, but the cleanliness made it feel premium. Would highly recommend for anyone visiting SPI.

New and Clean
Very nice place. Everything is new, or recent, and clean. The room is simple, but nice. The only thing that wasn't great was the bed. The mattresses are way too soft, so they are already sunken. We tried sleeping at the foot of the bed just to get out of the trough.

Clean property, friendly staff. Pool was great to use and is situated perfectly for sun and shade when needed. Rooms are mostly sound proof so this is a unique plus. I would definitely stay again.

Beds are a little uncomfortable as they are way too soft. There were tar stains on the shower curtain and on the bedspread. Overall it was still a good experience.
