Very nice hotel for the price point. The outside looks older, but the rooms have been updated. Staff was really nice. Quite area. The court yard was a nice addition. Not fancy, but it was just right for a solo traveler.
The property is old but well maintained. Our room was clean and the bed and pillows were comfy. The other furniture in the room was quite dated, and the room amenities were sparse (no Kleenex, upcycled soap from another known chain). Like I said, it was extremely clean and the bed was very comfy. For the price it was worthwhile.
I stay here at least once a month. Easy check-in, friendly staff, room is always very clean, shower works great, bed is comfy, all at a reasonable price. I highly recommend if you need a place to stay.
Look, it's econo lodging for travelers. They provided a clean, quiet, convenient stay. Just what I needed at a great price. Friendly staff and plenty of parking. Lots of food and gas options around. I would stay again.
The lady at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. She helped me with a few specific issues and mistakes I made when booking and was very kind and thorough. The room was nice and clean. Great, short stay!
Honestly for the price you are paying compared to higher end hotels you can’t do better. Room and bathroom very clean. Shower has good pressure and hot water. Mattress is comfortable and on the firmer side. Quiet atmosphere and slept good both times staying. Have stayed 2 times now for business trip and have already booked again.
