The desk clerk was friendly and upbeat. The room was spacious and the bed was comfortable. The shower had great water pressure but the frayed fabric shower curtain on the arc shaped rod could not keep the water in. The hair dryer didn't work, and there weren't enough accessible outlets to charge phones or make coffee. One of the window panes was completely blocked and needs replacement. They supposedly served free breakfast til 9 am. However when my husband went down at 8:45 they were pulling all the food and putting everything away without even asking if he wanted any of it. Even the salt & pepper shakers had been gathered up.

They refused to let me stay there bc I over slept past check out, they didn't tell me until I booked again and they already even took my money off the card. Had to wait two weeks for refund, they could of just talked to me the day I overslept and offered me to pay a late check out fee or told me that day before I left not to come back

Road Trip

Check in went quickly. The parking lot is well lit. We stayed on the third floor and never heard any other people. Breakfast was open before the scheduled time.

Really good

Everyone was friendly, the room was nice. To use the shower, pull the circle out of the spout where the water comes out 😉 Breakfast was a pretty good spread for a hotel. I was satisfied.

Cockroaches in the room in several areas. When we notified the staff they just said they come in and spray every so often. Unacceptable. This is suppose to be a 3 star hotel…
