An important improvement are the bath towels.

The room was clean and the check in very pleasant. My only complaint is there were only 2 very small bath towels and I hand cloth for two people. The towels were clean, but bigger better towels are a small expensive to make a room feel more luxurious than it is. The room had hard surface floors which I like, because you can not shampoo carpet after each guest, but you can mop a floor.

Liked: Cleanliness
Room was nice and clean. Bathroom doorknob was falling off and bathroom door was sticky to open and close. Staff was nice but often unavailable. There really wasnt much for breakfast. 2 cold cereals and a few packaged pastries. The area was a bit noisy but running the heater helped cover that up. The price was good. I would still stay again.

I expect better service for the price we payed. They had a makeshift bed frame that squeaky noises when turning in bed. No shampoo, Kleenex, and a 2x4 piece of wood that holds the vanity from falling. Not enough lighting in the room. Cold tile floors no carpet. Cold coffee at the front lobby. I was told that I needed to get my coffee before 9:00 am.
