Disliked: Room comfort

Meh

I wouldn't choose this place again. My room was given to someone else before I arrived. The one I got was shabby, with a light that didn't turn on, a coffee maker with a loose handle, a kleenex holder that protruded weirdly from the wall, and lots of noise. Besides the children galloping like elephants overhead, there was the highway traffic, the wind whistling in the roof area, and the incredibly loud air conditioner (which did not allow temperature to be set.) Breakfast was okay, nothing great. Staff were overworked but pleasant.

The room was clean and staff was helpful, but our first room didn't have a working air conditioner. We notified the front desk and were immediately given another room, but it still didn't cool down enough.

The overall experience was good. Was a bit musty when entering room. I turned on the AC and after a bit the air became better. The beds were ok. Not the best matteresses but not bad. The breakfast was fine. Basic cereal, juice, hard boiled eggs, pancakes and muffins. For a place to stay to get some sleep this hotel will do.

Ok hotel.

The hotel was decent enough. Spacious and clean room. Only complaint was the VER^ anemic breakfast. Most places have at least eggs, bacon/sausage. Not here. Essentially nothing...

Nice place to stay

Staff was very helpful and considerate. We were staying so my wife wouldn't be bothered with the open house while she is going through cancer treatment. We had some issues but the staff was helpful, concerned and cooperative with whatever we needed. Great place, nice room.

Super comfy beds

I was a little surprised at the cost but when I averaged it out over the period of our stay it was manageable. Found the beds super comfortable. Maid/room service wasabove average. Not a fan of the pancake machine, taste was bland.
