The hotel was very clean and well appointed. The staff was friendly and the breakfast was tasty. The hotel combined two brands in one building, Tru and Homewood Suites.

My only complaint was that they advertised as having EV chargers, but really there were only Tesla chargers. Other than that, the hotel and staff were excellent!

The Hotel was clean and my room was fine. However, my room wasn't available (being cleaned) till 4:30 pm and check in was at 3:00 pm. Then, I sat at the bar for 6 mins with a menu in my hand without help. I moved to a table and still no one even spoke to me for another 8 mins. They weren't that busy! Service was none existant and I will bypass this hotel in the future.

Okay for weekend trip

It was alright for what was needed. Breakfast had options - but was cold… I think sterno was out. Phone in room didn’t work. AC wasn’t cooling past 70. TV channel guide channels were not correct, were two off. Staff were attentive.
