Very nice hotel nice amenities nice rooms good breakfast. Unfortunately, I checked into the room and the room is only partially cleaned. There were dirty towels on the bathroom sink. The trash cans have not been emptied. I was tired enough. I didn’t wanna go down the complain. Just the maid didn’t finish cleaning the room, which is surprising.

Good place to just lay head and caught some ZZZZ's

It appears that they are updating the property with new flooring in the hallway & our bathroom. The room was clean, smoke detector was missing in our room, our reservation was for Queen size bed there was 2 full size beds. Breakfast: banana, box of donuts, cereal we choose to go across the street to Mc Dee for breakfast.

If you can drive 15 minutes away from this place to get another room do it!!! This place has very few rooms left for people just needing a place to stay for a night. Other than that it has residence that live there. No breakfast or coffee like the pictures show and it's not because they are remodeling it's because they let people live there so not going to provide anything free. Like I said RUUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNNNN DON'T WALK AWAY FROM HERE
