It’s a beautiful, garden-like hotel. The staff were very friendly, and check-in and check-out were both quick and easy. My room had a patio where I could sit and relax, which I really enjoyed. They also offer a limited number of free EV charging spots, which is a nice bonus for electric vehicle drivers.

I only needed a place to sleep before returning to the hospital the next morning, so I don't have any comments on the gym/pool or other extras. For my room though, it was clean, the bed was soft but comfortable. The bathroom was nicely updated with good water pressure, good shower head and hot water. The creekside vibe was great with beautiful garden surroundings. And gratefully very quiet even on a Friday night.
