8/10 Good
"Overall if you need a bed and a place to stay, this was fine. We got a great rate and with needing two rooms for two nights, it made the most sense. They do have a continental breakfast but there was no variety in the two times I stayed (four nights total). Biscuits and gravy, but no bacon or sausage. Eggs were premade circles. Did have coffee, juice, bagels, toast and frosted flakes. Pool was small and the water chilly but typical of hotel pools these days. I enjoyed it on my first stay but our family didn't make use of it on our second stay. I found bed comfortable but others found it hard and stiff. Elevator area was not overly clean. Staff was friendly but not always easy to find."

"Proximity to Bennigan’s restaurant was great so I didn’t have to venture out for dinner after arriving at the hotel. Breakfast was good but staff struggled a little to keep up with the number of guests. My only real complaint is that the bed was not comfortable as it seemed I could feel the springs."
