There are a lot of food options in the area, convenient location off I-80, friendly staff. But the rooms are outdated, smelled old, the heating/cooling unit in our room did not work properly. It looks like they tried to update tile in the shower but the caulking job could have been done better by the school of the blind.

Staff was friendly, room was clean. BUT!!! There was severe moisture in our room and upon looking behind the curtains….mold was growing on the back of them. We were in room 215 middle of the building. Would be a nice place, but mold/moisture issue needs to be addressed asap!

Barely got any sleep! People in room above us (adult males) were running in room and jumping on bed ! Called down to the desk several times. The clerk on duty went up there to tell them to quit disturbing other guests… they did not stop and she had to call the police!

Floor was wet and room had horrible smell. Had dehumidifier that was so loud you couldn't watch tv. Had to empty humidifier myself every 6 hours and it still didnt help the smell. Housekeeping only came in the room one time to take the dehumidifier while we were gone. Did leave towels the one time they came in the room but that was the only time. We were there for 6 nights. The floors of the whole hotel were filthy curtains had holes in them and the garbage was over flowing.

Good for a one night stay

It was only a one night stay. But the carpet left your feet dirty, ceiling light was broke. Chair to desk had stuff all over it. Smoke alarm was going off terrible- Had to have them fix that. For a one night stay, not bad- the pool was cold also.
