Room was very clean and comfortable. Hotel is very convenient to the interstate but tucked away in a quiet area so that you don't have traffic noises all night. I would definitely stay here again.

Not the best but not the worst.

Rooms were a typical hotel room. Pull out had no sheets on it and the mattress had stains. Bathroom had no exhaust fan and would steam up quite easily. King bed felt like it was worn down on one side (TV Side) and felt like I was sleeping on cinder blocks. There was a musky smell in the room. Hallways were hot and muggy with other guest leaving their personal belongings in the hallways (Soccer Cleats) all night making the smell even worse. It was a place to sleep and that's about it.
