When we checked in, no one was at the desk. The person working was not welcoming or friendly. Barely communicated with us the basic check in information. We thought there was a restaurant in the hotel but found out the bar only served a pizza. Just not a very welcoming hotel. It was clean, modern & the room was comfortable. The front desk staff were a big let down!

We had a solid one night stay during a road trip. The hotel was clean, the staff was very friendly. The drinks at the bar were a bit pricey but otherwise, no complaints.

Some clanging noise in the wall all night, very annoying. They wanted to charge me $14 for an English muffin in the morning when our reservation was supposed to include a continental breakfast. The area around the hotel was sketchy as well.
