Good value and location for short stay. Friendly stuff with a good breakfast
Pros:

Good breakfast with a nice variety. The staff was friendly. Our room was clean and the bed was comfortable.
The parking lot was big enough and convenient.

Cons:

The gym is a bit small and limited. It could also use a bit cleaning. The ceiling tiles can use some love.

Very enjoyable stay in a great location.
Pros:

The entire facility was clean, bright and welcoming. Our room was exceptionally clean and well supplied. Even the mini fridge was cold!

Cons:

Some traffic noise from the interstate bridge was manageable if we kept the fan running.

Not bad for the price but not my favorite.
Pros:

Location was great. Staff was very nice.

Cons:

Our room was not bad but the bed had more than a few hairs in it. There was a sheet that had a stain that looked like blood on a corner. The toilet kept running constantly. I didn’t think the bed was comfortable, it was hard, but I guess that’s all in preference.

My stay was very pleasurable.
Pros:

The location was perfect for our destinations we went to.

Cons:

House keeping didn't come by at all. The first night I understand because we had the were busy sign
But the second day we didn't and the room was not cleaned. So because of that we had an overabundance of trash for the entire time we were there.

Not worth it
Pros:

We enjoyed the location as it's close to a lot of places we wanted to visit. The bed was comfortable.

Cons:

There was a leak in bathroom when we used the sink, the staff wasn't extremely friendly, there's an additional $30 fee that I was unaware of when booking this online when it said all fees were included, the pool had too many chemicals so my husband and I couldn't enter the pool area without coughing from how strong the smell was, the parking lot is a disaster with half of it having broken glass. The shower in our room didn't get very hot. There were water stains and very poor patchwork done on the ceiling in our room as well. Paid for a river front view and my view had dumpsters and a retaining wall with very little river view. Breakfast was burnt and no flavor.
