Good budget stay for work.
Great budget place for simple needs. Internet good. Bed comfy. Few amenities but not needed this trip. Noisy spot is the main negative due to location. Continental breakfast is coffee, cereal, waffle, milk, juice. OK. Close to food places and Walmart.

Room was in close proximity from a main road and for light sleepers, road noise can keep you awake or keep waking you up all night long. The room was decent for the price. I had to ask for a new pillowcase since the one on one of the pillows had hair and lipstick on it. Perhaps a little more attention to detail is needed.

Horrible
Walking in smelled like I was walking into a hospital. The bathtub drain was clogged with something nasty didn't even want to shower. It was not a quiet area and too many people were screaming and yelling at each other all hours of the night.
