This was a nice experience for an average chain hotel. It is well situated with some decent dining within a 10-15 minute drive. The facility is well maintained and definitely clean. The staff were pleasant and accommodating. Breakfast was a little above average in its variety and reasonably fresh. We would stay here again without reservation if it was for a night or two.

Good value for your money.

Good value for your money. There was nothing special about our hotel room,. However, it was super clean and quiet. It was also easy to control the temperature in the room. The breakfast was also nice, and saved us money. A big factor for selecting this hotel was its location right off RT 95/RT 128. The only negative aspect of our stay was my wife and I wished the room's king-sized bed had a firmer mattress.
