Comfortable bed. Room and bathroom were clean , although the towels were stained. Breakfast at cafe was exceptional. Television was all streaming and a real pain when you're tired from travelling.

We had to book this last minute for a 4 night stay. Staff worked hard to get us checked in earlier than promised and they and the staff at Justamere Cafe, the attached restaurant, were top notch with making us feel welcome and taking care of all our needs. Five stars!

Nice place overall
The breakfast is not a buffet that u can pick any food and swallow everything in 15min, the staffs will take your order and prepare them in the kitchen, which does take time.
(P.S. the jalapeno sandwich is delicious!

The hotel is in an unusual location tucked away in the corner of a shopping plaza behind a grocery store and Dollar store. The rooms are in need of some modernization.
