Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The staff at front desk, cleaning crew and lobby food area were all very nice and helpful, room and bathroom was very clean and comfortable. It's a super convenient location close to campus. Nothing fancy, but perfect for our trip. 4 Stars mainly because with extreme cold outside the heating was in overdrive so our room was too warm for great sleep, but they explained the issue, got a tech guy up to the room to try and fix and brought us a fan, which helped a lot the second night. There were no free amenities in the lobby (coffee), but Starbucks on site was awesome. Will definitely stay again!

Room was clean, staff very nice, beds comfortable. I was just surprised at being a top scale name of motels, that it did not offer any anemities at all. No complementary coffee any place, no complimentary breakfast. I was very surprised that we had to pay for these things at a connected bistro inside the lobby.

Was not happy to learn that my final invoice showed a $40 increase over the first night that I paid for, with no logical explanation. Because the hotel is located right off the highway, there is a constant background sound of a white noise machine. It sounds as though someone shower is constantly running. Even though the building is non-smoking, I could still smell smoke from wherever people were smoking cigarettes.
