Pros:

I can't say it was a bad stay overnight, bed was comfy, everything was clean and neat. Not a fan of the small pillows, but that's a minor detail. Hubby heard the lobby door close a lot overnight, even though we were on the second floor. We were really hoping for an early check in to unload our stuff then change clothes for the wedding we were attending nearby. But the young lady at the desk was very apologetic about it and explained why,we understood and so we changed our clothes in the rest rooms near the lobby. When I asked the desk attendant if she had a safety pin, she was so kind to offer a sewing kit to me, which did include safety pins. Our breakfast next morning was better than adequate, lots of choices, we were happy. Overall we will visit again, this was our 2nd stay in Rochelle. Plus having the liquor store across the street was a plus! Thank you!
