Smaller hotel with great customer service. Location was great to everything we needed for the one night. The breakfast was way beyond what I was expecting! So many options. I would definitely stay here again!

Clean and well maintained with a modest but adequate buffet breakfast. Several good restaurants nearby. What more could a traveler ask of an overnight stop on a road trip?

The interior looks like it’s been renovated fairly recently. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean and quiet. Two things that would make our stay even better: 1) a second screening curtain or something to let light into the room but block the view in/out of the parking lot and the building next door and 2) better drinking water source than the sink (tastes a little funny/metallic and even a Brita in the little fridge in the lobby would probably help).

Ok Stay

The bed was comfortable with new linens. The overall stay was ok. There is nothing fancy about this hotel but the price is right. The free breakfast had very few offerings. The check in process was slow. There was no employee at the desk only a sign saying theyd be back soon. I waited approximately 5 minutes for them to show up which when you are waiting feels like a long time.
