The staff was great, clean room, real coffee cups in the room, and the issue with the TV was taken care of immediately after we called the office even though we didn't check in until late in the evening. 'Would definitely stay there again if we're in the area!

Clean room and comfortable beds. The scented detergent that seems to be used for sheets is flowery and very strong. Nice water pressure and hot water for showers. Excellent options for breakfast, including gluten free oatmeal. Very friendly staff. From the outside, this hotel looks old, but rooms have been renovated.

The only thing I missed was a refrigerator/freezer. The room was large and bed very comfortable. I recommend staying here. Mining area so diesel trucks do start up around 6am.
