The rooms like nice and clean, however, nothing works. I had two rooms and in both rooms the TVs quit working the night of the first stay and never came back. The wifi worked for about an hour then quit and I had to use my hotspot on my phone. The wifi connected but there was never any internet connection. Then breakfast the next day was really bad. The eggs were cold and not cooked all the way. The sausage tasted days old and the cinnamon rolls were cold and hard. I had a noise issue too but the front desk took care of that. I stay at holiday inns alot because they are almost all good but not this one. Never again.

Good hotel except the Cannabis store robbery

I really like this hotel, would have given them a 5-star rating EXCEPT: we were awakened at 4am by a smash and grab robbery at the Cannabis store across the parking lot. They drove an SUV through the front door and stole everything they could grab. Probably won’t stay here again. What a shame.
