Wasn’t the best stay

The entry way smelled like wet dog, the room on the 4th floor also smelled that way. Lucky I had a lavender mist with me that I sprayed all over the room to eliminate it. Parents would let their kids run and scream down the hallways until almost 10pm, I was on a work trip and needed sleep. The breakfast was not great. The eggs were cold and they barely had enough at 9am in the morning, breakfast was from 6-10am. Didn’t bother refilling and at the same time the pancake machine was broken. I would rate this hotel at a 3 star at best. Needs some work.

The room was fine, but absolutely freezing when we arrived. Would have been nice had the hotel turned on the heat prior to our arrival. Breakfast was just not good. Eggs and gravy were way too salty and inedible. Bagels were rock hard.

Good breakfast

The hall - 3rd floor- smelled like smoke and the heater did not function properly in room 315. We awoke to a room that had to be 80 degrees. The next night it wouldn't heat. The breakfast area was well stocked and clean. The young lady at the front desk was very friendly.

Easy parking and very close to Interstate 75. Walmart, McDonald’s, CVS pharmacy at walkable distance. Breakfast option acceptable . Room was spacious and clean. The only problem is noise from nearby Interstate especially as construction was ongoing at night
