On a hectic road, but the rooms were clean and comfortable. The shower head was really nice and something very important to me when I travel. Breakfast was not that great, but pretty standard for breakfast included chain hotels in this price range. The Koy Grill down the road was Turkish cuisine and we had a great meal there. Staff was very friendly and there was ample, free parking out front.
