Good area that's easy to access and close enough to groceries, fuel and restaurants. Newer building and the lobby was clean and nice. The hallways were very clean and the room was great--comfortable beds, plenty of good pillows and a clean, bright bathroom. Typical hotel breakfast, but it was good with many options and everything was clean. Definitely would recommend this to friends and family who needed to stay in the area.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
There was very little food out for breakfast due to some sort of issue in the kitchen. There was some issue in the kitchen and they were completely out of other things. Noone working there seemed concerned or made any explanation. A bunch of guests were waiting for food that never came. We ended up having to get food elsewhere. Not a very convenient use of time when traveling. We payed a premium price for our room and did not feel that the hotel was worth it regardless of the breakfast situation. I would never stay here again.
