Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
I rented this room specifically because I needed to take a shower because my bathroom is being renovated at home. The shower was terrible. The water just dribbled out. Also, when I checked out, the staff at the desk was not friendly or personable at all. I had to initiate the conversation and was not greeted.
Front desk Theresa very accommodating. Clean quiet place for a night's sleep.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Be aware - there is no dresser or shelf in this hotel rooms! There were three hangers and one luggage rack in the room, how do we unpack for three of us?? Towels were mix and match patterns. Rooms were newly remodeled, but everything was cheap and rough made. We stayed 4 nights and I had bug bites all over my back. Not sure it was from bed bugs or what.
Very nice place. My room was huge!! Fresh lemon ice water and coffee available in the lobby. Breakfast was nice and well stocked. Very easy access to I-70 and downtown.
Good place
Perfectly exceptable for the rate
Just a bit dated and weathered

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Staff was incredible -however amenities need much fixing- gym
equipment didnt work and out of date,
had to switch out the ac unit in our room- tv remotes didn't work, water pressure was minimal- not near any food or convenient stores - that being said was VERY quiet!
The stay was nice. Beds a little hard, but renovations were being done. So maybe beds will be upgraded too but all and all nice comfy safe with nice staff.
