"I liked the 24 hour access to coffee. Small morning buffet of sausage muffin, chocolate muffin cake and possibly a grain bar. The pool was closed. Pool table available at a reasonable charge. Room was very nice. Didn't use free cable tv and internet much. Noted garlic tag and garlic shell remnants in top drawer of room's dresser. Located close to restaurants, gas station and Ohio Turnpike. "

"The pictures of this hotel are deceiving. Our hotel room was dirty and smelled horrible. We stayed our first night of 3 because we had driven 500 miles and were exhausted. There was no breakfast the next morning (hot or cold) and the pool was filthy. We left and came back to sleep for the second night. We ended up checking out of our room at 12:30 am because the room next door was throwing a party. SUPER loud music heard through the walls and they were smoking weed in their room AND right outside our door. There was no manager on duty when I checked out that I could speak with. The boy at the counter didn’t really care that we had checked out 2 days early, or even asked why. This was one of the most disgusting hotel experiences I have ever had. To have to check out of a hotel at 12:30 in the morning and travel to a different hotel was awful. We will NEVER stay at a days in again. Beware!"
