Not bad but customer service could be better.
Pros:

My class ended earlier than expected and I was able to check in a little earlier than expected.

Cons:

The fact that I had to ask about a microwave in my room and breakfast or any other amenities were not explained when I checked in.

Pros:

One of the best beds! Hotel was super clean.

Cons:

The location. It was very close to our places to visit so that was great. The surrounding areas came with a lot of homeless people 😭

Awesome!
Pros:

The staff was very accommodating. I requested a pet-friendly room and was given one. The male night staff (I didn't get his name, but he is the only one who works the night shift :) was very professional, knowledgeable, and helpful. I would definitely stay at this hotel again.

Cons:

The area where the hotel is located seemed to be near a rough area. But overall, the place was very well-maintained, and the lighting around the hotel was very good.

Clean, but iffy.
Pros:

It’s clean and easy to park.

Cons:

The bed was rock solid and the room had some bad fixtures. I had to take pictures to make sure I wasn’t charged for something I did NOT do.

Clean and good price

Apartment houses across the street, people would walk up to you in the lot and ask for things making it uncomfortable to feel safe and secure that your vehicle wouldn’t be broken into.

Not a hotel I would stay at again.
Pros:

Drinks at the bar were reasonable priced.

Cons:

Breakfast was disappointing, bar didn’t have coke or sprite for my drink, the DPS officers took up all the time outside, the children played on the pool table so we couldn’t do that either. And hotel was across from the hood that sells drugs.

Stay was meh.....
Pros:

Staff did help with TV issues in 1st Room, moved us to a different room.

Cons:

We couldn't dial in the Temperature of A/C in room either too hot/cold. The shower door leaked, bed was too hard. TV package didn't have enough main channels. No microwave in room. Parking was limited on front door side. I thought the room rate was high for what we got in return.
