The location is nothing special, but simply a building and a parking lot cut out of a piece of property between a mall and the interstate. However, I picked this hotel for the value, becuase I was a on business trip. The building exterior and lobby is under renovation, so the parking lot is full of construction equipment and materials, construction tape, and the lobby was gutted. This is perfectly understandable due to the work. No compaints! The staff at the desk were super nice, check in was quick, and the room was ready. The facility is pretty worn, but hopefully as the work progresses, the goal is for the entire building to see some love. The issues we had were not with the desk staff or the construction but simple expectations of common services. The first issues we found was a broken coffee pot. the switch was completely gone, so for our first round of java, we treked downstairs to the breakfast area. The second was a failure to refresh the room after the first night. We returned late in the evening after being gone the first day to find that the towels/washclothes used the night before had not been refeshed. The staff was quick to hand me another set for all three of us. The third was when I needed to call the front desk to check on a request for a plunger only to find that the room's phone was not functioning. So that involved another trek down to the lobby. Maybe the stay will be better after the renovations, who knows? For me, I will plan on staying at another brand
