This was a last minute stop for us and it was great! The room was clean, the bed was comfy, the shower was hot. Breakfast had a good variety of options. It was right off the interstate. The only con was that it was noisy because of the convenient location. But we travel with a sound machine so it wasn’t a huge deal. Clean, comfy, and convenient.

Very friendly.

I was a single but our group was there to attend a funeral. The staff was very accommodating for family to come back and socialize. Everyone was friendly even the maids. Breakfast was hot and had plenty.

We booked this hotel because it was one of the few in the area that had a room that would accommodate 6 people (my wife and I and 4 small kids). The room felt very unfinished and neglected. There was a picture missing from the wall, a hole in the door, and cobwebs on the lamp. It did not feel like we were in a hotel but like we were in a room that was built inside a warehouse. Even the lights flickered after they had been on for around 30 seconds. Even though I booked ahead on Expedia the check-in process was extremely slow and it was not a busy time (we arrived around 12:30am). The breakfast was decent and that area was clean and modern.
