Quick stop on longer trip. Hotel is under renovation so it’s not pretty to look at inside but check in was quick and clerk was friendly. Rooms were unaffected: clean, quiet, roomy. Shower had good water pressure and Dove products. Liquid soap by sink- so glad to see a hotel with this instead of the little bar soap. Grab and go breakfast (due to renovations) had a good number of choices. Would stay again.

The stay overall wasn’t bad. However the breakfast was not great, and the bathrooms have no air vent so it wasn’t ideal. We were not impressed, and Will look elsewhere next time we are in the area.

The breakfast had a broken pancake machine. And some of the omelets had been in the warmer for quite a while also most of the oatmeal was not made properly but also understaffed so it would be very difficult for the person taking care of the kitchen to do that and work the front desk

not impressed

Not any their fault, but the hotel was being renovated and there was no access to a commons area if you didn't want to just sit in you room the whole time. Room was clean, and comfortable. Antenna style tv, no menu to see what what on. Not to impressed. The ladies behind the counter however were amazing and were very helpful and always had a smile given there situation, again, they had no control over. Hotel owner needs to pic it up and get the renovation finished before i would stay there again.

They need to get a better grip on the construction going on. I woke one night coughing due to the fumes from some product being used, I had to open my window & place a towel under the door. The coffee is bitter & weak, at the hour I left every morning there were no other options. They need to provide lotion. Slapping a new coat of paint is not renovation. Staff so-so.

Not for the handicapped

Room was very nice, but not as "accessible" as it should have been. There was no grab bar by the toilet. We asked about this, as I was afraid we had been put in the wrong room. We found out that we were in the accessible room, but when the room was remodeled, the new vanity didn't allow for grab bars. I was unable to close the bathroom door while in my wheelchair. The shower only had one small grab bar, too far from the locked-in soap dispensers. I felt like the accessible room was designed without consulting an actual handicapped person. The front desk staff people were very nice and listened to my concerns, there was just nothing they could do about it.
