This hotel is strangely tucked in between car dealerships. It was conveniently located right off the interstate. It is an older hotel that needs some renovation. The room was clean, spacious enough and was sufficient for one night stay. Breakfast was available but just okay.

Staff was lovely. Room was clean. No elevator to the second floor. That's a dealbreaker for me. Also, what good is it to have luggage carts but a step up to the door prevents using them from the car to the rooms! No handicapped access.

Hotel may have seen better days but room was quiet and clean, and hotel was packed. Breakfast was on the sparse side but we got there towards the end and they do have a waffle maker. Wifi wasn't great but they have plenty of outlets -- just make sure you have a plug-in adapter.

It was okay, air conditioning kind of sucked, coffee was horrible: not a lot of staff around, but the staff I did run into were quite nice. Shower head leaked pretty bad and ran out of toilet paper. I probably wouldn’t stay there again, but it did the trick.

The place is clean and updated. I felt safe staying with my teen for 2 nights. Breakfast options were as expected. It’s tucked behind 2 car dealerships. Terre Park was close which was a great place to visit.
