I dont complain much if I'm in a hotel just to sleep. I didnt much time inside but unfortunately when i did, the staff is dry at the front. Nothing welcoming. At least if the bedding is comfortable. I think the toilet when i arrived and after the cleaning had hair in the bowl.The room is damp and smelly. The breakfast was awful.

Parking was easy. Staff was very friendly. Room was clean and did its purpose but walls are very thin. Can hear people in their room when walking down the hallways. Breakfast area had good choices but dining area was small and cramp. Lots of restaurants near by. Very close to 75. Felt very safe staying there.

Should be called sleepless instead of sleep inn. Walls paper thin got woken up every morning because you can hear people talking or there Tv or alarm. Breakfast was good but kids from apartment building come in there and take a lot of the food. Pool was nice my daughter loved it but did not get one night good rest definitely wouldn’t recommend this place to anybody.
