Room was clean. Staff was mostly ok. It took forever to get hot water for a shower. Really wish coffee was available before the times listed. It doesn’t really take much effort or money to provide coffee longer than 4 hours. I’ve stayed at places where coffee was available 24/7 and they were more reasonable priced than this location. Parking was ok.
