It was fine for the price and location. Good value if all you need is a no frills hotel room, and much better since the re-model. Clean room and staff was friendly and courteous. Easy walk to Buffalo Wild Wings and Fujiyama Japanese Steak House and a few others. Would stay there again.

Breakfast and location is good, but for the price I expected more. The floors are made of paper, I could hear the guests on the top floor making a lot of noise all night long, it was not the worse but sub-par considering the cost.
