The website for this hotel shows breakfast is included which we factor in our expenses for our trip. A drink and oatmeal packets really? I will say the rooms were very clean.

We had an outside door in our room that needs rubber gasket around it. Cold air leaks in all around it. Other than that it’s great! And a bargain!

It is near everything and the only draw back is the restaurant takes all the parking so you will have to wait. Also the ice machines are broken and all the furniture doesn't match but you get what you get for the price

Ok for what you pay.
The room was small and needed renovations. There was no coffee pot or tea available in the room. The bed was comfortable. The room was quiet at night. The fridge was good, and we used the microwave no issues. When we went to the kitchen area in the morning it was terrible. There were dirty towels on the counter. I went to make a cup of hot chocolate which I brought myself and the water in the carafe was room temp. I ruined my hot chocolate. It was a total disappointment as far as breakfast. I was able to salvage an apple. The bathroom and sink were clean and looked new. They were nice. The manager was pleasant when we had to leave early. It was not a bad place for the price. The rooms definitely need an upgrade and no carpets.
