My son and his friend stayed in a room in which the blinds didn't work. They were forced to sleep with the windows open and the bright lights from the parking lot shining in on them all night. The price was also way too high for the location, which is in the middle of an industrial corner by the highway.

The room is very spacious. It is close to shopping, restaurants, and groceries. The hotel and room are immaculate. The staff is very inviting. I was treated like royalty. The staff even asked me if I wanted them to go outside and get my luggage for me, as it was raining very hard. I was welcomed and thanked for being a member. I would definitely recommend this hotel.
