Pros: The location was great. You’re right across the street from Wal Mart and blocks away from Wonder Works and Ripley’s. Lots of restaurants nearby. The staff were friendly (especially Juvy). Cons: The pillows were awful. The bedding clothes could use more weight as they slid off the beds every night. There’s no conditioner in the rooms. The paint on the walls in the hallways could use patching up. The breakfast comprised of only bagels, cereal, hard-boiled eggs, and some pastries. There’s no common area for guests to hang out. Overall, it’s a fine hotel. It won’t blow your mind. It’s a place to sleep, and it’ll do the job.

Our stay was just ok. The hotel is in a great location, near everything and seemed walkable to most attractions. Ample parking. The toilet in our room was stopped up when we got in and there was old food in our fridge. Breakfast is very minimal. The room was spacious and close to the soccer complex, which worked for our one night stay.

Staff was courteous. I wanted to leave a happy review, truly. The beds were clean and comfortable; the room was clean and spacious. I booked the 2 queen bed suite for 2 nights. The first night things were great! Hot water, good water pressure. However - our deadbolt did not close at all. The hole was not lined up properly. I had to ask for the "Not yet Sign" as I don't like staff entering my room when I am not there. I reported the deadbolt to three different employees at the front counter. Never offered to change rooms or anything. The second night the hot water wasn't working. It was room temperature at best. By morning it was barely room temperature. I reported this and was told maintenance was not on sight, it would be the morning the before it would be serviced. Again did not offer to change rooms or offer anything for the inconvenience. We were checking out in the morning so maintenance did us no good. I reported it again upon check out thinking maybe they'd refund some of the price - nope, only a "We're sorry, safe travels." Also, second floor ice machine isn't there. You have to go downstairs. The suite is also a central heat and air type set up. It took hours for the heat to warm the room. We stayed when the nights were in the 40's. So yea - an okay stay. Loved the set up - but lack of quality in basic maintenance makes me not want to return.

Good for very temp stays. Beware of elevator

Breakfast is like cereal, yogurt, bagel type options. Bed was comfy. ELEVATOR HAS ISSUES. Onlyn 1 in service and the other would do several biunces before stopping on the floor. It didn't break down but it felt like it was going to. Hotel is clean. Good spot but probably would not book again
