The clerk that checked us in that evening around 6:30 was phenomenal! Friendly, helpful, and informative! The sweet lady running breakfast the next morning was also just the absolute best! Helped with our needs and did it with the sweetest smile! However, housekeeping and the woman running the front desk clerk Saturday morning were not helpful nor polite. Breakfast was great and the location was what we needed but I don't believe this hotel lived up to the 8.4/10 rating posted on Hotels.com. It worked in a pinch but next time we will spend the additional $50 and stay at the Hampton Inn in the same area.

Will not be back here. Got checked into our room at 3AM after a long car ride here to find sheets in the floor, open beer left in our room, and the tv blaring. Totally unacceptable.

Booked the room online and when I got there, I had no room ready. So was the same with other couples that were also turned away.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
We had to stay at this dump out of sheer desperation. It’s filthy, very clear they didn’t clean it after the previous guests checked out, staff is rude and won’t answer the phone, and our room didn’t have any towels nor soap and shampoo. For $320/night, it was a terrible experience. Avoid big time; in fact any hotel/motel that’s run by Singh Enterprises - these guys set the bar very low for hospitality.

Carpet was damp. Staff was cordial. Breakfast does not start until 6AM. I had to be at jobsite by 6AM. Printed TV guide did not match actual channels. No one to checkout. Unable to get a printed receipt making expensing difficult.
