Our go to place to stay
We have stayed at this location several times. Always great service. Breakfast is good, great bed and plenty of space in the rooms. Nothing major but noticed that some of the walls needed a good wipe down.

Very Good Place to Stay
I wish I remembered the name of the gentleman at the front desk. He was very professional and pleasant. He was working the bar and the front desk and never missed a beat. The hotel is very clean and in great condition.

Will we be back?
We (my wife and I )stay here every year for Black Friday shopping. This year was great, the room did have a smell... It wasn't sewer and it wasn't bad. You just got whiff when you stepped in the door. Shower water pressure was low but good enough for a shower. I'm a tough customer to please however this hotel did it... We'll be back again!

New pillows are terrible, very hard, feels like straw. I borrowed a pillow from my son’s house to be able to sleep. These pillows were not a good idea. At least, keep some old ones that guest can ask for. Everything else was great.

4/10 Fair

Disappointed
The hotel is relatively new. Decor is decent. We upgraded to a king suite and the room was roomy and comfortable for the most part. One of the two televisions didn't work, the shower pressure was extremely low. I went to pull out one of the "clean" folded towels only to discover that it was soaking wet. The sink had a leak that not only soaked the towel but the floor as well. From the look of the shelf, it has been leaking for awhile. Towels were like sandpaper and the tissue box had ONE tissue in it. Chexknin was not great, the front desk guy was not pleasant and didnt greet me upon arrival. Best part of the stay? The free breakfast was actuality pretty tasty.
