Excellent

Stayed in Suite with Jetted Tub. Jets felt great on lower back until you try to sleep in the really firm bed. Could use updates but overall worth trying.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Staff was very polite and friendly. One issue was the elevator, only one working and the door on the one working was way to fast to close
Room was clean and taken care of. Room was very small, had a double queen , if someone sat at table there was no way to move to the other side of room. Rest of property was lacking. No laundry facilities, what they had was broken. Only one working elevator that the inside was always dirty.
I was supposed to have a working refrigerator, but after multiple requests, and promises, I never got one. All you get told is, "I'm sorry.", and there no real resolution. Lots of smoking squatters at this hotel, and breakfast was less than desirable.
Breakfast was terrific. I was surprised at the variety as well as how it cooked. The room was very clean and comfortable. Staff was friendly. I will return to this hotel in the future
I thought it was great for the price and a good breakfast but a few things that were irritating. There was a portable closet almost in front of the AC so it didn't cool as well as it should. The satellite gave out when watching something way to often. It may seem strange but the toilet was super low I'm not that tall average height but it was low. Would I stay again probably but not in that room and would look at other options before I decided to come back.
The location was great, stayed here while doing an ISU move in. The hotel is decent but has kind of an odd layout. If you have a room that starts in the low numbers you have to walk all the way down the hall from the front desk to get to an elevator to go up and then walk all the way back over to your room. There is a stair case you can walk down instead but that leads you to the parking lot. Also, the a/c did not get very cold and the curtain was broken.

Disliked: Staff & service
Staff didn't clean my room as I requested seven hours earlier. Shower curtain had mole spores and was not replaced. Staff expected me to change the shower curtain. I was enraged. Don't think I will return !!!
