The hotel is in an industrial part of town with not much in the vicinity other than easy access to the highway but the hotel itself is fantastic - like a little hidden gem. It was super clean and seemed new (like it smelled good) and I am very sensitive to that. The front desk staff was friendly and helpful.

Entering the building was fine, the attendant in the front desk was helpful and clear about the check in regulations. Outside of the hotel is a bit run down but the most import is the inside and it was pretty good. The room was clean but the air had a slight smell of cigarette smoke. The bathroom was exceptionally clean and they provided enough clean towels. The bed was very comfortable and I felt over all safe. I would stay there again.

We had a quiet and cool room thanks to Brian at the front desk who understood that we needed to be in area away from the noisy family reunion that was taking place. He did a great job accommodating us!The property is showing a little wear and tear but our room was neat and clean. We really appreciated having the efficiency kitchen with the full size refrigerator. And it was nice to have a laundry facility at the property. The property is easy to.find from the interstate but is a bit of a drive to dining options. We would stay here again.
