Staff was great upon check-in. Room conditions weren't great. Carpet was stained, rust in mini fridge . Just felt dirty. Bed was SUPER comfortable. Location is right on a main corridor so sleeping was interrupted with traffic noise.

The room was clean and the staff was very helpful. A refrigerator and/or microwave would have been a nice addition. An earlier breakfast would have been helpful.

Have stayed here several times. Always friendly staff; quiet nights, clean rooms, morning coffee.

6/10 Good

Room was clean and the staff was polite. But it could use newer remodeling. The breakfast was a meager offering, but better than nothing. And what they had was suitable. I appreciated it because our one night stay was just to rest, get up and have coffee and be on our way. And that is probably the exact clientele they are used to. I would stay here again if I needed to.

I arrived later in the day and after staff had closed the office, but they made sure I was able to get into my room, putting a lot of thought into it and reaching out to me for instructions. The room was a good sized one, although the windowed door was a curiosity I had never seen before.
