i liked the welcoming texts. The room was clean and the bed linens simple and clean. The floor was tile and I appreciated THAT THERE WAS NO CARPET. I liked the big TV and watched a good movie. Breakfast bar was ample and well-stocked. OUTSIDE the building the parking lot was fine, but coL ncrete at both back entrances need repair. AL IN ALL - a good stop1

Clean, basic, needs updating. First impression is not positive, small lobby. Hall carpet needs replaced. Very basic, utilitarian type room. Okay for a quick sleep on our way to Michigan. Not a lot of offerings for breakfast, but did have good coffee.

Outside area, building looks tired, in need of renewal. The room was beautifully renovated, very clean. Breakfast are was nice, good variety. Only suggestion is to install a safety bar in the shower/tub area as the tub floor was very slippery
