It is close to restaurants, grocery stores, gas stations, big chains and smaller stores. Easy freeway access to 71. The room was good and well-appointed. I like the larger bottles of soap, conditioner, etc., instead of those tiny one-use items. It seems so much more eco-friendly. All the staff I spoke with were amazingly friendly and helpful. There was a noisy room near mine. At midnight to 1 or 2am, walls and stomping and my pans rattling. I dont know where it came from. After they left, it was very quiet.
There was also a shop in the lobby for some food items.
I would choose thise hotel and location again.
The hotel and room was dirty. Also, there were uneven floors by the air conditioner (possible water damage). The parking lot had very limited parking and not well lit, which is likely why it a prime spot for car break-ins here lately, which made me feel unsafe to stay. Thankfully, once I addressed my concerns, the hotel did refund me my money.
There were a lot of issues during my stay. Overall I felt that the hotel was not safe and there were shortcuts taken by the staff. The desk was hardly ever attended and
The hotel could really benefit from a lobby area that can accommodate a group that would like to meet up. We were in for a travel baseball tournament as a team and it was hard to find room to gather.
The place was easy to get to from the highway and you have multiple national restaurants within a 3 minute walk. Would stay here again for sure! Also the front desk was very nice!
