Would never stay again.
Pros:

Breakfast was the best thing.

Cons:

The sofa bed needed to be put in the trash. The room was next to the highway. Noise day and night, with auto and large trucks.

DONT CHARGE FOR PARKING!!
Pros:

The staff was excellent! Very helpful and friendly.

Cons:

Having to pay for parking is an absolute insult!!! The hotel is located on the other side of a highway from downtown with hardly anything around it. Non-hotel guests wont be parking in the lot...so don't charge for parking!
Spotty WIFI. A friend was 4 doors down had a good connection, I had spotty access at best.

Scammers
Pros:

I didn’t really like the property at all. I just needed to sleep from driving all day.

Cons:

The property showed that I had booked through Booking.com and it was already paid for, but they didn’t receive the funds from Booking.com. I explained that that’s something you gotta take up with them, but here’s my receipt from the website stating that it was paid for, and they also could see on their end that it was paid for. They wanted me to pay again directly to them. I immediately said no, and left. In my opinion, this seems like a scam.

Pros:

The bed was very comfortable. The shower was powerful and amazing (We had a handicap accessible room.) The breakfast was warm, fresh and tasted wonderful. I forgot my toothbrush. They gave me one.

Cons:

I requested no feather pillows. My husband is allergic. 3 of the 4 pillows weren't feather, one was.

Would never stay here again
Pros:

Nothing really but location was decent

Cons:

The rooms were absolutely filthy... We're talking a pile of hair from the previous people who stayed there dirty. The hallway smelled like they had unhoused individuals staying there. It was god awful. Everything about the room just felt dirty.
