Liked: Cleanliness
Room seemed clean but no shower gel or soap. Room can use a refresh. Breakfast eggs inedible, sticking to pan and hard. There was a few other options but not many.
Clean, friendly, efficient and good price. We had a quick quiet sleep and back on the highway. Would stay again.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
No bodywash in the shower. When I asked they knew because they have been put for some time. I was advised in order to have the soap you must ask, then they bring a bar of soap. ?? Batjroom was also not very clean.
Eggs & sausage barely warm not hot.. had Waffle maker but area wasn’t tidy … no microwave for after hour use …I was there for a weekend stay house keeping didn’t clean room Saturday … staff had zero personality at the front desk …I wouldn’t recommend this hotel to any of my friends
