Clean hotel

Clean room, small pillows, poor bedside light fixtures. Breakfast consisted of cold scrambled eggs, thinnest bacon I have seen in years. A several days old bagel wrapped in plastic. Hotels.com did not notify the hotel of my reservation so had to charge my credit card twice. The clerk was nice and helpful.

Quick Stay

The room was exceptionally clean and newly renovated. However, we encountered a minor inconvenience: breakfast ended at 9 am, which was too late for us after a long night of driving. I had hoped to get my toddler some apple juice and dry cereal for the road.
