Clean room. I liked that it had a kitchen even though I didn't use it. The bed was comfortable. Quiet, I never heard any noise in the hallways or next door. I really liked my stay at this hotel. I would have rated "excellent" if it wasn't for the continental breakfast. There was no fruit and no apple or orange juice. One day there was no coffee, but I went to the receptionist, and she came and made some. Beside this, I had a great stay!

Good spot to relax in town
The hotel was a simple halt on a longer trip, though. It is located right beside the Interstate and not far from a good access to shopping and restaurant. Hotel was fine, clean, simple, very basic breakfast, plenty of space and nice. I won't forget the place if I need to stop by again.

From the time I arrived, I felt comfortable. One night I came in late and the front desk opened the door for me! Hotel staff were very accommodating and the housekeeper on Saturday did a fantastic job! I will book here in the future! Very kid friendly too!

I liked the place had a kitchen you could cook in (if needed). I had to leave for the airport (11miles away) at 3:30am. Nobody working, kind of desolate outside at night, I was by myself.

Very dirty staff was rude and lied to you Manager was no help. Contacted corporate as well which they only offered a limited amount of help. They said solve it with the on-site manager who was useless to deal with.
