Clean hotel with friendly staff. We had a king suite which had lots of room. Breakfast was good. It’s a pretty basic hotel, and we enjoyed our stay. We would stay here again.

Breakfast was well stocked with many options (eggs, sausage, yogurt, and more). The beds and pillows were very comfortable. Unfortunately, the staff made us feel like we were an inconvenience, the ice maker was not working, and the closet door was off its track.

Bathroom and shower floor were quite stained and dirty. Bed was comfortable. Ice machine not working and rear security door did not properly close- anyone could walk in from the street. Breakfast quality was poor. No one minding the front desk in the morning.

Location was perfect for our needs and there’s a very nice walking path & park nearby, including pickleball courts. We had a larger room with 2 queen beds, which were comfortable. Bathroom drains were slow - not pleasant while showering. We stayed 3 nights and never received maid service, just a towel exchange after the first night. Breakfast was as expected. I would stay again, going in with the lower expectations & understanding that I may have to make the bed & reuse towels.

We got to hotel about 12:30 pm after a very early flight and wanted to get an early check in to catch a nap. Was informed there would be an additional charge. Ok fine. Place did not appear to be really busy and they could have waved this but perhaps since I booked via Expedia perhaps I was already getting a good deal. Of course they had a room available. We got in and took a $25 nap. Normal check in time is 3 pm. Ok room with wonderful view of a roof. AC unit never really got the room cool. My biggest complaint. Never slept well in the 3 nights we were there. Free breakfast was good and bacon on the weekend was a nice touch. Kwik trip has much better coffee. Staff not very friendly but I may be biased by the first interaction. Breakfast people were nice. Place was clean. Ice machine worked well. Ok stay.
