The scent in the lobby is very strong. I get what they are going for, but its ki d of like an overpowering cologne. Just too much if you ask me. Getting to the parking lot is weird...driving through a mcdonalds to get to it? Everything otherwise was fine. Nothing special so im unclear why it got the 9.4 rating. No coffee maker in the room. My wife said the sheets smelled unclean, but i cant say i noticed. One minor glitch, the housekeeper missed the do not disturb hanger on the door and came in around 8 am. She quickly apologized for the error. Not a big deal overall. My fault for not putting the lock on the door. Again it was an ok place. Medium 3 star place.

I thought it was clean and the breakfast was good. It was near a highway so you can hear the cars at night. The receptionist wasn't able to allow early check in or extend our check out. She said there was a tournament and she had no flexibility.

Staff was great. Rooms are very clean. Rooms could use a little bit of maintenance. Our room was missing a picture over the desk that was clearly knocked down. Didn't effect the quality of the room, just little things that need to be done.
