Wow! The renovations and changes to the hotel are stunningly spectacular! The room upgrades are perfect. Big king bed nice decor comfortable and quiet for our stay. Breakfast was also a positive shift from what it used to be when this site used to be a different Hotel. Hot breakfast with a variety of items was very welcome and helped us to save a lot of time in the morning. It was also helpful to have a sports bar next door because we didn't have to go hunting for a late night place to eat when we came in. This is always a good hotel even under previous branding. Now it's a great Hotel!

Room was very clean. Staff very friendly. Decent breakfast with cereals and croissants. Our room was facing Rte 18 and it was a bit noisy which is understandable with all the construction on the road. Would stay again.

Room is clean but the noise from Route 18 made it an uncomfortable night. If you are light sleeper, it is not recommended here but for one night, it's do-able. There's practically little to no hot water. The breakfast option is ok.

Very easy and quick check-in and checkout, the staff at the reception both evening and morning shift very friendly and courteous. Room was super clean and the bed was perfectly set. Nothing much to say about the breakfast, very small space and very limited quantities of the offered few items and if you are late in showing up then good luck if you get anything.
