Our first room smelled like cigarette smoke and there was a kid screaming next door. Thankfully the front desk staff quickly moved us to another room. The rooms aren’t the best but we slept well and it was quiet despite the location next to the highway and a hospital. I wouldn’t suggest for single female travelers otherwise if you’re not looking for anything special, this place will work for a night.

Rooms are like brand new

We were really surprised at how nice and spacious the room was. The bathroom vanity separate from the actual bathroom was awesome. Even had a nice bench and chair to sit on. The refrigerator was the largest one I’ve ever seen in a hotel. It was like a miniature normal fridge with a separate freezer door from the rest. Only cons were we heard a little noise throughout the night with being in the hospital district. We heard sirens and a helicopter in the middle of the night. Also wasn’t a big fan of not having direct access to the lobby. Set up more like a motel where all the doors to the rooms are exterior access only but not a dealbreaker.

The breakfast was ok. (Sausage, eggs and biscuits) nothing special. !st room was awful! Somebody had peed in the bed and it had soaked to the mattress! The manager offered no compensation for the inconvenience! Not even we are sorry this happened. Staff should have handled the situation much differently, rather than acting like i made this up! The housekeeper agreed that the mattress should be replaced and the room was closed for rental.

Look at an extra major thoroughfare with plenty of restaurants and shopping around but tucked away in a medical center. If you're looking for a little bit of beaten path and a private quiet experience this is the one for you.

The facility was overall clean. The room was clean, but it smelled like stale cigarette smoke. The room had a remodel, but the smell was honestly horrible. I normally never comment on rooms, but the smell was offensive and there was no ice. I had to ring the bell multiple times before someone came to check me in.
