Clean for sure

The room and hotel were the cleanest I’ve ever stayed at. The breakfast was under whelming but was a typical continental breakfast with no added bonuses or hot food. Also it ended at 10a and we were there at 9:30 and it was pretty empty and the staff checked in but didn’t refill anything

Broken Keys

Everything was nice except the key card machine was broken. So the guy from the front desk had to come with us to open the door every time we wanted to get back in our room.

Great place

The hotel was very very clean the property was also clean. The rugs in my room and hall were very clean. I did not see a stain in room or hallways. The bed was extremely comfortable. The towels were fresh and soft. The only thing was the breakfast was limited. You could make toast have a muffin yogurt or cereal. There was breakfast sandwiches you could put in microwave. They could have had a little variety of them all that i saw was sausage and egg. The breakfast area and front desk were also very clean. I will recommend it to friends. The people on the front deskwere also fantastic. It is close to highways i never heard any road noise.I stay in hotels about 5 times a year. I think other hotels should take some lessons from them.
