  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Decent breakfast but close to several really good breakfast spots.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Hotel was also clean but the ice buckets next to the ice machine on the 3rd floor were slimy. Went to the 1st floor and ice buckets were fine. I did report these issues to the front desk so hopefully more attention will be given.

    Lobby was cozy and a nice place to hang out at. Room was well done and looked nice. The parking lot could use some TLC but it’s not hazardous in the slightest.

    everything great

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    I loved everything about the property except for the included breakfast. There were a lot of nice touches when we arrived that felt welcoming and personalized to us. The bed was clean and soft. The front desk was friendly and accommodating. Our toilet was clogged within 5 minutes of arriving and they provided a plunger right away. The breakfast options were ok. I prefer waffles and pancakes or more hot options. There were a lot of carbs - cereals, oatmeal, bagels, muffins and not as many keto options for visitors who have health issues.

    We had a quick but very nice stay for one night. As a family of 5 we truly appreciate affordable rooms with 3 beds. Jay at the front desk was so nice and incredibly helpful! Would definitely stay again!

    It is quiet

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    The breakfast was average, the room was good, general areas needed better attention, carpet in our room had spots and throughout the hallways and at the front entrance was really not up to par, please strive for excellence.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    The only thing I can say I was disappointed was the Wifi. There wasn't any free wifi as they claimed
