My family and I have stayed here multiple times. Always great service, comfortable rooms, and pretty good breakfasts. A great deal for the price.

Everything was clean and comfortable during my stay! Daily breakfast was great and there is plenty to do in the area. What made my stay special was Amanda's hospitality! She made sure we had whatever we needed and went out of her way to give restaurant recommendations and even provide snacks in the lobby during EAA!

Rating based on a three star hotel. Rooms were clean and comfortable. I was on the side facing the highway so there was a bit of noise. The snack bar was well stocked with good choices if you need a grab and go. Front desk service was extremely prompt.

We had a wonderful 10-day stay! We were here for Junior Gold 2025 and from the start we had a great experience. They gave us a terrific price that included breakfast. We walked in and there was a beautiful balloon bowling display. When we went to our room there was a hospitality bag with bowling theme including water and local coupons. We used several of the coupons! The lobby and eating area was spacious with board games and lemon/ice water. Afternoon fresh baked cookies was a nice bonus! Location was convenient to get to the bowling alleys in Appleton and 5 min to the airport Thank you for a great trip.

First of all any place that has a physical LIVE person to talk to and CARE deeply about giving a total stranger one hundred percent REAL customer service ~ way to go ADRIAN! You are keeping customer service as a top notch priority and you deserve to be praised for it!
