Breakfast had offerings to please anyone. Hot offerings were delicious, and of course, fresh waffles are always a hit. Coffee hot and plentiful. Lovely seating in the main room as well as comfortable seating by the fireplace.

Only one thing I didn't like. When putting the address into the GPS it sent me to the middle of nowhere. Very disconcerting when you're in unknown territory. Thank God for Tracy. I called the front desk and she actually talked me to the hotel! Perhaps a better GPS listing would be coordinates or a renamed address. I found out there are THREE Old Epps Bridge Roads!

The hotel and my room was very clean and well set up, easy to navigate, and in a fantastic location

This didn't negatively impact my stay but I just want to mention it so that the staff has the knowledge. I stayed in a king bed suite that had 2 tv's and both remotes could control both tvs so you couldn't use them at the same time because they could control one another.

The breakfast was really good and variety plenty. The afternoon front desk helpers were absolutely polite and helpful. Young but really polite and dedicated to their job, as well as the general manager in the morning and his lady assistant.

Came too late for check in and all the first and second floor were taken:(

The hotel and room were clean and very comfortable. The folks at the front desk were very pleasant and helpful. The walk-in shower was amazing.

Walls were a little thin. When I turned off one tv, the other tv would turn on, which was amusing and a little annoying but not a major issue.

The location was great. Restaurants are within walking distance. The hotel smelled nice

The first room assigned had a pest problem. There were 2 big flying roaches or Palmetto bugs in the room. However, the hotel attendant was very professional and immediately moved us to a different room. I don't recall her name, but she was very nice and professional.

Great location to the main road. Clean room. Good breakfast options. Plenty of restaurants near the hotel.

Wish there was an armchair. My mother accompanied me and has issues with her back, so she typically sleeps in a chair with her feet propped up. She used the desk chair in the room (which was okay), but an armchair would have been a better option for her.

very clean & had a great breakfast each morning. the pool was nice and my kids enjoyed it.

the walls were thin and we could hear the noise from the streets at night, the cars/ motorcycles riding up and down the road were very load. we had a room with an outside wall. the bed wasn’t that comfortable but wasn’t too bad.

At breakfast only one salt and pepper and it wasn't put out. Packs would be cleaner. Cereal was out at start and not filled during breakfast. How about some real milk ,not low fat. Most all hotels serve low fat. There is a reason for there being 200 gallons of real milk at the grocery store and only 10 gallons of low fat! Educated people do drink real milk. If low fat where better for you ,God would have made low fat cows! You asked......

Very clean rooms, nice bed, great bathroom. The breakfast area was very nice, as was the pool and workout facilities. A nice newish hotel

Traffic noise from the street was pretty loud, the air handler was somewhat noisy as well and needed to be turned off.

We travel frequently for pleasure, but this visit was for medical treatment at the University Cancer & Blood Center. The bathroom was immaculate, which is important to me.

Wish there was a restaurant for dinner.
