Good stay for one night. Easy on and off highway. Air condoning unit was noisy
LOIS, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Everything was very good, but the beds were terrible, and we did not sleep well. Sleeping comfortably is the main purpose of a hotel stay and thus disappointed.If the beds were updated, I would definitely recommend the hotel .

Other than a used coffee cup with coffee stains and lipstick, it was average. The room we had was quite spacious.

Breakfast at this spot is terrible!
Tony, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Clean bathroom, dirty floors

The room was okay. The decorations were modern and the bed was comfortable. The bathroom was clean, but the room floors were filthy. It was clear that no one has mopped them for a while. The floors felt gritty and my bare feet were black after 10 mins of walking around. I ended up putting on socks and my husband opted to walk around in shoes.
Mandy, 1-night trip

Nice clean hotel - enjoyed our stay
