A perfectly fine basic hotel, although my room was so close the highway, the noise was disturbing to my sleep. The manager kindly offered to bring ear plugs; I would have preferred an offer of a room change but perhaps none were abailable.

The hotel was okay...nothing in particular wrong with it. I thought on the website that it would have been a little better and more included. I get the business concept of not having a breakfast included with the price, but I believe most consumers are elastic on the price of the room of they feel like they're getting a great value for their dollar (like "free" breakfast). I totally understand the economics from a business perspective, but you have to think about it from the consumer's perspective and "merchandizing".
