Pros:

Very friendly staff, and extremely clean. Quiet and comfy beds.

Cons:

The location was a little far from the interstate, but, there are plenty of food choices close by. Honestly there's really not much close to the interstate so this isn't a big deal.

Overpriced rooms
Pros:

Small parking space and get full so be prepared to park away and walk . The shower head on the bathtub so high up and barely runs water. When first got into our room it was so hot in there and takes forever to cool down

Cons:

Parking space. And the shower head being so high with hardly any pressure
