Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
I liked that i felt safe at this location and the room very spacious. I didn’t like the customer service, the cleanliness, and the fact that there were dead roaches in my room. I didn’t get my room serviced once during my 4 day stay and I even had to take my own trash to the lobby so I could dispose of it.

Adequate place to stay for a quick weekend or trip

Really needs a general update (paint, new carpet). Breakfast was typical budget hot breakfast. There is no elevator and the hallways are quite long. Room was comfy, but we were on the highway side and it could get loud once in awhile. On the bright side there was easy access to anywhere we needed to go in town.
