Very clean property and perfect for a night stay to get off the road! I loved how the had such a variety of breakfast options from sausage, eggs, toast, muffins, to tougher and coffee plus tea and fruit and granola! Definitely would recommend to others.
The only thing I didn’t like is getting to the property I don’t know if I took a wrong turn, yet the gps took me through the store parking lot.

The manager was amazing. He made us feel very welcome. The room was similar to a dorm room with no pictures on the wall and a blind on window but no curtain. The beds were very comfortable. The breakfast was the usual choices.
The location was unusual for us. To get there, you drive through a plazas parking lot to a road that doesn't look like a road.

Everything was clean and neat looking. I also enjoyed the little things of essential care they offered in the bathroom.
There was a particular smell that smelt like old or mildew-y but you get used to it and it’s not so bad anymore. Breakfast wasn’t too bad but some hot foods weren’t hot and the gravy was so low, or food items were low and it’s understandable since it was a weekday.

Overall better than I anticipated. The room door was hard to open/close but all else was great. Didn’t get a chance to try the breakfast. The room was great value for the money with fridge, coffee maker, and microwave. All seemed clean and no smoke smell!
It would be nice if the window and under the door kept more light out at night but no real complaints.

It was a very good value, very clean, very friendly staff, wonderful breakfast options!
Its proximity to highway makes it a little loud not terrible but noticeable.

It was clean. The location was good. The room was spacious. The bath products were great. I appreciated the nightlight in the bathroom.
It was difficult to figure out how to get to the property after exiting the interstate. The breakfast left a lot to be desired. The bathroom lighting was very poor.

The rooms were very clean, beds excellent and breakfast was very good. Great value. Front desk clerk made sure we had everything we needed.
You could tell they were going through a renovation so the outside does not look as good as the inside.

The staff is beyond amazing.
If you are disabled handicapped or elderly with mobility problems there is no elevator so I recommend contacting property prior to booking to confirm first floor.

The breakfast spread was amazing. Also extremely clean and everything was fresh, well organized too.
Fix the carpet upstairs in the hallway and put a handle on the backdoor.
