We tolerated the 2 days cuz we didn’t have a backup plan
Pros:

Near fwy and free breakfast was nice

Cons:

Dirty and outdated. I will not be back. Curtains had what looked like an old blood stain at bottom of curtain, it was 5” bigger than my hand opened up. Walls need to be painted. It was dark in room and dirty between boxspring and mattress at headboard. I used my disinfectant wipes to clean curtains and all countertop. Oh and the people upstairs we VERY LOUD walk or jumping around to the point that it affected our sleep and we cud feel the vibrations from them in walls

A good night's sleep.
Pros:

The staff was super nice and friendly the housekeeping was very friendly and accommodating.on the few requests we had. I think the best part of our whole state was the beds they were firm but yet soft. And we had an excellent night's sleep. And soap in the rooms and the small toiletries soaps and lotions smelled very nice. It was super close to food locations which made it very convenient for us when we returned to the hotel late at night. We did enjoy the hardwood floors in the room. And the marble tile throughout the hotel. The breakfast eggs were not super watery. And the sausage was nice and hot. I did have a microwave in the breakfast area so if you wanted to heat up your food more you were able to do so. We did enjoy that they did not end early it's close time was 10:00. Also they had plenty of spots to charge our electronics. The photos of the hotel are fairly accurate of the hotel.

Cons:

Not the best on spots parking. There were some mystery stains on the furniture in the room and the seats in the breakfast area. The breakfast area was a bit of a mess but it looked like it was due to other guests not wanting to clean up their mess. They left cups and plates and pancake batter on the table. We did go to the breakfast area late and a lot of the bread and bagels had been eaten and we're not able to be refilled because it was so late. But that was completely our fault.

Pros:

The bed was comfortable and the location was easy to find. Staff was friendly.

Cons:

The breakfasts were pretty sad. Booked a single bed room and was given a handicapped room where the shower head was at chest level, not high enough to shower under. My TV and fridge stopped working in the middle of the night. I'm sure the multi-plug outlet extension was not fire code regulated. I was pretty sad to have this experience because it had such good reviews. Facility said it was non-smoking but I could constantly smell smoke in the hallways. Parking also was pretty sketchy all the way to the back.
