microwave was not working. heater was too close to the bed. We had an end room with two walls facing the outside. Temps were in the lower teens all night. The heater, being so close to the bed, did not heat the room. Very cold night

The hotel was clean but basic, on par with what you’d expect from this chain. The breakfast was better than expected though. Location is not bad, not a lot walkable but everything is close enough when driving. AC unit in the bedroom was super load though, which is really my only complaint.

Everything else was good but just wished the room had some humidity in winter months. Due to heater turned on, the room started to suffocate over night and we had to turn it down

We arrived at 7:30 pm and our room wasn't ready. We came back close to 10 pm and it still wasn't ready. At this point we figured out that they were overbooked, luckily we were able to get a room about 30 min later. Bathroom wasn't as clean as I like (hair on the floor, hair in the tub, toothpaste in the sink) makes me wonder what else wasn't cleaned. Breakfast was a joke unless you like eggs that taste like metal.
