This is about the fourth time we have stayed here to go to the great American outdoor show and it OSS a very clean and pleasant place to stay, only complaint we’re had is that the attached resistant OReillys just didn’t have enough staff to work Super Bowl Sunday night but for the people that were there they were great also! Thank you
