Nice hotel but expensive during any football game.
Pros:

Overall, the room was spacious and clean with a pull out to sleep additional adults.
Each bed had 4 pillows which was very nice.
Refrigerator and AC in the room worked well.

Cons:

The road noise was loud at times but based on proximity, not unexpected.
The toilet seat was loose and not soft close.
It would be great if the hotel supplied shampoo.

Good location, nice staff
Pros:

The location was convenient to our needs. The room had nice beds and ample room. The check in and check out process were easy and the person working was friendly and efficient.

Cons:

The water in the pool was too cold to swim which really disappointed us. The breakfast had a lot to offer but the sausage gravy was too thick to eat.
