Disliked: Amenities
Not sure the pool was even open. Water had suds on it and when I asked at the front desk their reaction was it might not be open for cleaning. Continental breakfast consisted of Raisin Bran cereal. That was it. Room colors were disturbing. The green bedspread doesn't go well with the red wall.

Our non-smoking room smelled like smoke, but was otherwise clean. The room temperature was fine and beds were acceptable. The toilet tended to overfill rather than flush effectively. The pool and spa were closed. The desk staff were nice. Overall, could have been better but acceptable for the price.

This was the best night stay I've had on a last minute road trip. It was very quite, the bed was comfy and I got my deposit back in about 3 days! I wasn't expecting it because these places usually don't honor it but I did receive my deposit! That and how quite it was deserves a 5 star in my opinion!
