I stayed 4 nights for work. It was nice and quiet, friendly staff, and loved that they had free washers and dryers, you just needed to purchase your own soap.

The room/suite was clean and in good condition. Staff were helpful and friendly. The parking lot was kind of torn up and slippery with rain and mud, so it was hard to park for check-in.
The staff Afraz and Alfred were amazingly kind, considerate, and accomodating. This specific hotel is my go to hotel every time i come into town because of the staff, the cleanliness, and the overall location.
The hotel has a modern look, but still feels cozy. Our room was large and comfortable. The fitness center & laundry were clean. I liked that you need to use your room key to access the building after 11 pm.
I often have a lot of trepidation about staying at hotels without knowing how comfortable their beds are. Most of the time I wake up with a lot of back pain and just don't feel comfortable. I slept in a full size bed and was very comfortable. The check-in people were friendly, and the room was clean. The hotel was extremely quiet. I have zero complaints.

Okay for a night.
The stay was alright, check in was easy, check out they went and reviewed our room before they checked us out, which I have never experienced before.
There was a blinking green smoke detector right over the bed, which was intensely irritating, but otherwise fine for a place to rest before driving on in the morning.
The location was a little off the path in what appeared to be a commercial park.
This was a very comfortable clean place to stay, especially if you need to stay several days due to the small kitchen area and full size refrigerator. There are some good dining options within a few miles too.
By far, the staff was outstanding! They went above and beyond to help me with some strange communication issues I was having when I lost my cell phone. The staff was communicative and accessible. Although I would have enjoyed a morning mini breakfast, coffee was always available and there was a well-stocked mini-mart. I would definitely stay there again! 5 stars from me!!

We used the kitchen area a lot, to save on eating out all week. I wish there was room for an actual table so 2 people could eat together. I ate all week at a desk. Its a small thing, but i really missed having one. Otherwise the bed was good, and shower was fine.
