Clean and convenient

Nice spot at halfway point of drive to fam for Christmas visit. Only downside was that I had to drive to get dinner because there weren't any restaurants in walking distance. When I realized there was no fork in my takeout bag, the front desk clerk found one for me.

Clean, very clean room. Comfortable bed with soft linens. Had many amenities that I didn’t have time to use but maybe next time. Breakfast was fantastic! Big selections, not just toast and bananas.

There was a tag in the room saying we could get hiegien products a we forgot. When we asked for toothbrushes and toothpaste responded with we have none. There was very unclear communication at check in. Caused an over draft on my account. She said she needed a card for incidentals, and would be no charge, the card was just needed to be on file. Then proceeded to charge 150 dollars. WiFi password word was not communicated. And when we wanted to stay another night they insisted they need to add an other 150 dollar deposit that I will wouldn’t get back for a week. We checked into a different hotel
