Cockroaches in the lobby when we checked in! The front desk guy was sweet and helpful and just wonderful, but there was a cockroach right by the front entrance (inside the doors) when we checked in, and it was still there when we went to leave the next morning! The matress was horrible, brathroom tiny and toilet seat needed repairs, sink was cracked at the faucet and leaked all over the counter. Shower curtains were dirty and moldy. Only saving grace was the customer service of the gentleman at the front desk when we checked in.

Got we expected, which was good
Basic, clean hotel… used the fitness center for some weights and cardio… quiet place, easy parking… the grab and go breakfast wasn’t much, so I wouldn’t count on that alone. Next door there’s a Denny’s that had a kids eat free promotion from 4-10pm which we didn’t take advantage of, but would be a good option for families with young children. In all, a good experience for the price.

DO NOT STAY HERE!!!
The hotel smelled like dead cats at night time. The breakfast was a honey bun. The coffee tasted like soap. The breakfast sandwich was cold. The gym had little to no workout equipment to use. I do NOT recommend a stay here.
