The room was great. Very clean, smelled nice. The only thing that was concerning was the elevator. Button lights did not work and it was extremely creaky. Continental breakfast was as expected—eggs, make-your-own waffles, yogurt, coffee, bagels, toast.

Hotel was being remodeled during our stay. We stayed in one of the newly remolded rooms. Checked in late at night and left in the morning, was perfect for a one night stay. Great breakfast.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room itself was very clean, but this location is going through a remodel. The elevator was out of order, so we had to walk up 3 flights of stairs on the outside of the building, which to me is unsafe. The sink in the bathroom drained really slow, and the shower didn’t have hot water, only lukewarm water. Their makeshift breakfast area was in an extremely small area and options were very limited. The staff were pleasant though. I think once the remodel is done this will be a really nice hotel, but I would not stay here again until the remodel is complete.

This hotel is undergoing renovations, which are needed. Once it is finished I think it will be great! Our AC unit did not work properly and our room remained hot the whole night. They didn’t have another room to move us to or a fan for us to use. The “buffet breakfast” was not a buffet. It was a very slim continental breakfast with a waffle maker that the breakfast attendant required you to allow her to fix you. They did have 1 pan of eggs available. No juice and no coffee. The elevator was broken so we had to use stairs located outside to go from our room to the lobby. Only one set of stairs was available for use on one end of the building because the other had a “hazard”. The staff was friendly and our room was clean. However the overall building just isn’t ready yet to make it a 3 star rating.

The facility was going through a remodeling. So a lot of dust in entryway. I found the staff competent and friendly. For weary travelers, the room was comfortable and rested well each night. The room was clean and the restroom newly remodeled. Conveniently located near restaurants and Wally World was close.

We were there while the lobby was being renovated. I assume the rooms will follow, and that's good, because the one we were in was dated, and the bathroom desperately needs a remodel from the studs out. But the room was clean, the bed was comfortable, the hotel was quiet. That's all we needed. The gentleman who checked us in was awesome.

The hotel is under construction but the floor I was staying on was not. It was dirty and smelled of marijuana. Garbage in the hall and carpets throughout were dirty. Staff was nice. Bed was comfortable even though the room was old and needs updating. The breakfast was standard fare, nothing to get excited about. I would say pass on this hotel.
