Breakfast, parking, staff, check-in and an ewwe Breakfast was adequate and staff work diligently to keep it clean, stocked, and orderly. Much appreciated the extra work they put in so guests can a have a good start to their day. Easy parking. Ihop next door is another dining option so is the Cracker Barrell behind it. One ick we found are boxers and a sock left behind, wedged between the tv console and the bench and notified staff. They readily responded and reassured us it will be removed when the staff cleans the room. Upon retuning at the end of the day - they were still there. Had to call again and the front desk removed it (with gloved hands, thankfully). It was disconcerting to find it and even more so that it was still left behind again when the room was cleaned. In all, the stay was fine and the breakfast ladies were the gem of this hotel.
