Aggressively average hotel experience. It seems quite new, and it was clean. The picture for the room made it look like there was a glass shower enclosure, but it’s just another tub/shower combo with a curtain. Not the end of the world but I felt vaguely deceived.

Was not going to stay here after I walked in and was told the rates. But… Devyn was so incredibly helpful and easy to talk to, she was able to find me a great deal that was much lower in price. Devyn was probably one of the best hotel people I ever had the pleasure of working with. And the manager Tristian was really helpful in securing rooms for my crew as well. I’ll be sure to stay here each time I come out this way for work with the kind of hospitality Devyn and Tristian provided.

I had an excellent stay and my room and the hotel were super clean. The front desk staff was extremely attentive and helpful and check in was quick. The pool was nice and the workout room is large and has everything you need. The breakfast bar was good and they have a single cup coffee machine where you can make it tailored to your tastes.

The location is convenient, just not a vacation destination, so I gave it a 4 for that. Everything else was excellent. The hotel is new. The rooms are super clean and modern. The service was very good. A full breakfast is included in the price. If I were driving back through the area, I would stay there again.

I stayed here for a few days while my truck was being repaired, and the experience was great thanks to the staff and especially Tristen, the manager. He went out of his way to make a stressful situation easier for me. Tristen was very understanding and worked with me on late checkouts while I was calling around for updates on my truck. He also kept me informed that rooms were booking quickly due to traveling sports teams, which I really appreciated. The entire staff from the front desk to housekeeping was exceptionally kind and welcoming. The hotel was kept very clean and maintained daily. Tristen and his team truly care about their guests, and it shows. I’m very grateful for the hospitality and would definitely stay here again.

I stayed 3 nights. It was clean and seemed fairly new. clean. The pricing was good but saved $40 using Priceline which I reserved while in the hotel lobby. Staff was very friendly. However, the "Hot" breakfast was inadequate which was disappointing since that was a deciding factor to stay there. First the hot items were just warm so became cold by the time I got sat down. The scrambled eggs were slightly rubbery and dry making me question if they were really eggs. One morning had small egg & cheese omelettes which were much better than the scrambled eggs. One morning had bacon which was cooked well but the mornings with pork and turkey sausages did not look appetizing so I didn't try them. The mini muffins were not tasty. I would've liked some granola to put on the yogurt. The pancake machine made rubbery pancakes. They were more like a thicker crepe than a pancake. Lastly, the air units were not installed correctly allowing a lot of cold air to come inside the room. I did let them know. I ended up having to stay a third night so I checked back in with a different room and it had the same problem with the cold air. Overall as a hotel I would stay there again but if I was looking for a good breakfast I would not.

Great place to stay if you’re in Kernersville, North Carolina! The staff are friendly and helpful. I got to Kernersville about 12:30 PM, And check-in is not until 3 PM. I Normally would not do this, but I thought what the heck. I went in and spoke with Carol at the front desk. She was very helpful and said yes I could check in right then. My room was clean and comfortable. The shower was nice and the spray was good. There are Dove products in the shower: shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. At the sink there is Dove hand wash and body lotion. At night, it’s very quiet, even if your room faces the parking lot. I cannot say enough good things about the hotel. If you’re ever in the area, you will be happy you stayed here!

What a great hotel. The room was huge. The bathroom was huge. Tremendously clean. Workout room was amazing. The girl at the front desk was named Devony or Devon I think. She was super nice and helpful. Breakfast was outstanding. Truly one of the nicest hotels I've ever stayed in.
