Conveniently located near I 465 and to my meeting place. Close to restaurants. Great and friendly staff. I missed a call at 4:30 a.m. regarding my daughter going into labor and my wife called the front desk. They promptly came and knocked on my door to let me know I needed to call home!

The property feels very dated and not very clean. Had stinkbugs in our room upon arrival. Door to room did not seal properly, could literally see into the hallway, felt unsafe. Overall feels like things could be updated a lot. Breakfast required vouchers or paying, not worth it in the least, it is just like the free breakfast you would receive at any other hotel, variety not great and enough to get you by but very subpar.
