The Spark property is seemingly brand new and beautiful. The room was spacious, bed very clean and comfortable, and the bathroom excellent. The bathtub was larger than most, and clean. Breakfast offered choices and was very good. Location was safe with ample parking. All in all, the hotel far exceeded our expectations, especially for the modest cost.

Best staff ever, super friendly, I booked two rooms and without me even asking they booked me two rooms next door to each other. 24 hour fresh coffee available for free in the lobby with a mini store if you need to purchase anything in the middle of the night, everything was spotless and I mean spotless! The hotel is pet friendly so keep that in mind, we love pets so it didn’t bother us at all, free parking and great location with easy access to every road we needed. We enjoyed the hotel.
