I don’t like property still using the Covid short staffed excuse to avoid cleaning your room. They charge full price and don’t clean your room, plain and simple so they stink.

Awesome place , would recommend

Things that could use some improvement: There was a stain on the other bed. Half empty tissue box and some broken parts under the toilet seat and small crack in the edge of the tub. Overall very clean everywhere else and all the staff was very nice. The staff who worked on Thursday till 11 pm would be honorable mention and highly respected because she gave me advice to do door dash when the side walks were covered with snow and risky to walk 1-2 minutes to Wendy's or Burger King. Breakfast was the best I have ever eaten especially the sausage gravy and butter milk biscuit. I didn't know the next day breakfast was going to change but very good overall
