Breakfast consisted of toast, fruit loops, and cheap coffee. This facility is a former super 8 that hasn't been updated since it was built in the 80s. We saw one staff member at check in after we called for service on the lobby phone. Property seemed to be clean but the old blankets and striped sheets were just odd for a hotel. It was ok for a cheap one night stay but next time i think ill spend the extra $50 on something nicer.
