Good hotel. There was a mildew smell from the sink drain in the bathroom, which was not pleasant. Otherwise, great experience! We would have appreciated cooked oatmeal in the breakfast area.

Room was comfortable and clean, but I was a little concerned about location. Area was run down and industrial, I did notice some area revival happening so possible that this will change. Breakfast was the usual motel buffet nothing great. They did have a parking security fence and camera so was safe.

Breakfast is good. Parking is very convenient for trucks and trailers. Rooms are nice. My complain this time were the pillows, they were not the best I had a rough night. Also the staff working had no good customer service. They need to learn to say good morning, good night, etc. to make people feel safe and at home away from home.
