Not the best stay but good ones previous visits

I've stayed at the property many times. The breakfast is plentiful with options and consistently good. However, this time a barking dog, resident in a room below mine, woke me up at 5:00 AM. Also, the electric outlets for recharging lap tops and computers were a bit loose and didn't charge my iPad overnight. But the most frustrating thing was the intermittent and weak internet access both at night before bed and then waking much before everyone else due to the barking dog. I never was able to log into their internet on my lap top and only sometimes on my iPad. Never experienced any of these problems during my previous stays.

Shuttle to the Mayo definitely a plus. Very clean! Excellent Value! But the night clerk did not like his job and was not a good ambassador for Quality Hotels.

We had a great stay here, I was nervous when I pulled up and it looked like a motel with outside doors. I got inside, it was clean and welcoming. Both front desk gentlemen I encountered were friendly. I loved our room, it had a living room and kitchen with a full size fridge. Everything was updated, fridge was old, but spotless and kept everything cold. The room was so quiet, we didnt hear a peep from anyone around us. I would highly recommend this hotel!

Breakfast “buffet” was packaged foods to reheat. Ran out of packaged gravey, which was alright since it tasted like cardboard. Fishtank in lobby dirty and stunk. Supplies stacked in lobby not appealing.
