Cons:

Breakfast was disappointing. Coffee was decent but stale bread and carbs left a lot to be desired. Maybe add some boiled eggs or just keep the coffee and drop the rest of it.

Not a huge deal, but curtains in the room were old and frayed.

Well maintained and clean.
Pros:

Conveniently located just off I-80 on a frontage road. Clean property, friendly front desk person (Chris?). Room was clean, spacious and well decorated. Comfortable bed and clean linens, quiet AC/heater. Didn't make it to breakfast, but standard buffet continental items are offered. Reasonably priced. No pool. Two story property with an elevator. Plenty of free parking for cars, and oversize vehicles can drive around back and park, (tractor trailers may be better off parking along the frontage road). Gas and truck repair (semi's) close by. Great place if you're looking for a clean, budget friendly place to spend the night. No shopping or restaurants close by.
