Decent place to stop overnight while passing through. The staff were all pleasant and came immediately when we complained of a chirping smoke detector. The room was clean and updated. However- not sure what is going on in the building because I was woken up around 3:30am by someone using tools- would hear hammering and banging and I had a hard time getting back to sleep. Heater worked very well! Good location off the highway!
