I stayed 1 night for a layover from driving. Room was comfortable, quiet and clean. Excellent accomodations. Easy check in. Breakfast was simple but adequate for what I needed. Cereal, fruit, toast, juice, coffee, etc. No hot options but every was excellent. Price point was very good and ratings were high. Hotel is located about 1/4 mile off the highway so it was free from road noise. Would stay here again.

There is nothing around really. Plenty of parking. We stayed for a quick overnight and continued on our way in the am. The continental breakfast was subpar. Nothing hot at all basically cold cereal, yogurt bread or a muffin some juice and the milk was 3 days past expiration. Carpet in the breakfast area was grungy. Very small room and mostly high top tables. Bed and room were ok. Shower curtain showed some mold.

It was a nice stay. It was very quiet and easy to relax and sleep. The staff was very friendly and nice. If I had any complaints at all, it would be nice if they had fresher bagels and doughnuts for the breakfast.
