Miserable but comfortable sleeping and clean stay.
Pros:

The front staff in the evening were super nice, check in was easy. The entire place was clean & comfortable

Cons:

The prices in the lobby store was insane we went to the dollar store acrossed the street instead. My husband got bite by a dog that required medical attention after getting home & nothing was done about the dog. Children were running up and down the halls and lobby all night and morning slamming doors from 10PM-5:30am and it was a sleepless night.
