I felt safe at this property. Staff was respectful and attentive. Breakfast always available. The neighborhood was a little industrial, but quiet.

Place was clean/ reasonable for the price. However, I stayed when we had a blizzard and the control panel for the heat/air unit did not work, it did not display any information, so I could not control the temp in my room very well. Otherwise the place was fine!

Good stay with good price

The hotel has been recently remodeled and very nice. All the employees we interacted with were extremely helpful and attentive to any requests. It was a really hot weekend and the AC in our room couldn’t keep the room cool. They were very accommodating to get us a different room.

4/10 Fair

The room had a weird smell that never went away. The front desk lady was very friendly and answered all of our questions. The room was advertised as having a morning breakfast-they had nothing but coffee. When I asked the gal about the breakfast and coffee her response was "negative", I'm guessing that meant there will not be any! I would not recommend spending $150 a night to stay here!

It's a place to sleep/Does have an odor

We booked this hotel because there wasn't a lot of choices in the area for the weekend. While, we just needed a place to sleep and shower, the front entrance and first floor hallway reeked of ammonia or pet urine. Hotel breakfast looked like bread in individual bags which was a huge turnoff that it was out all evening and not fresh. For that reason we didn't grab anything for breakfast the next morning. Beds were ok, pillows and AC were good, mattresses were a bit hard, and sink drained slow. Again, we were there for just overnight. The room had a faint smoke smell....we were just thankful my son didn't have an asthma attack from that and the smell of animals. Sorry it's not a great review, but it doesn't seem like a $110 room.

There wasn’t any breakfast enough for the customers lodging at the property, they tried on Saturday but on Sunday there wasn’t any breakfasts. Also there’s barely no staff at the front desk to communicate or get information despite the bell they’ve for someone to ring. We rung the bell and nobody came out to assist.
