Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
It is close to restaurants, grocery stores, gas stations, big chains and smaller stores. Easy freeway access to 71. The room was good and well-appointed. I like the larger bottles of soap, conditioner, etc., instead of those tiny one-use items. It seems so much more eco-friendly. All the staff I spoke with were amazingly friendly and helpful. There was a noisy room near mine. At midnight to 1 or 2am, walls and stomping and my pans rattling. I dont know where it came from. After they left, it was very quiet. There was also a shop in the lobby for some food items. I would choose thise hotel and location again.

Property was very convenient to all the things we wanted to do. Convenient, right in between my two girls homes. The only thing I don’t like is we left our room extremely clean and some sort of $100. Deposit is still pending on my credit card. We have been home nearly one week.
