We had a great experience. The staff was great! We had an issue with the internet but the front desk was quick to help us fix it. The room was clean, beds were comfortable. They had a nice breakfast in the morning. The noise from the highway is pretty loud so if you are noise sensitive you would want to have a noise machine. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again!
