Pros:

Close proximity to family.

Cons:

The room had mixed warm lighting and cool lighting. One of the tvs had too high of contrast and low brightness. One of the staff members were very unkind and unwelcoming to me and my mother.

Comfort, value, and space
Pros:

I chose because it was close and a good value but I was impressed with the size of rooms and comfort. I was very pleased to find that there was no cheap chemical smell as I’ve been noticing more and more in hotels.

Cons:

The coffee in the room wasn’t great, but I’d still stay here again!

Pros:

Gal at check i didn't tell me cleaning was optional. She gave me a piece of paper but didn't tell me what was on it. For $300 a night I want someone to clean my room.

Great stay, great staff!
Pros:

After a mess up on MY part (I booked the wrong date through a travel app), Larry at the front desk helped walk me through what could have been a stressful situation! He made sure I had everything I needed and everything worked out great! It was a wonderful hotel with outstanding staff! Will definitely stay again!

We Would Definitely Stay Here Again
Pros:

I booked the room by phone while on the road. The person on the phone was very helpful as was the receptionist when we arrived hours later. They have a little convenience store for things you might need. The room was spotless and well appointed. The bed and pillows were very comfortable and the towels were thick and soft. The heater was very quiet making for a very restful night's sleep. We enjoyed the hot breakfast with waffles, scrambled eggs, sausages, potatoes, and all the other continental breakfast options. It was a great place to stop for the night after a long day of travel.
