The people in the room next to me came in at 1:00 in the morning slamming and bumping. I even knew that they brought in take out. It continued until 3:00 in the morning. At that time I could no longer Go back to sleep. There were some items in the bathroom that were of concern, but you get what you pay for.

Had problems checking in, they double billed me. They only had make your pancakes and waffles, no eggs except hard boiled and after one bit it didn’t taste good and had to throw it out. The drapes didn’t close all the way I had to tape them together.

This was our 2nd time staying at this hotel and I have to say it was cleaner and still a comfortable place to stay. The breakfast was nothing special but a nice option. We will possibly stay here again.

We needed a place to stay in the area and the options were limited. It was fine and what I expected - nothing impressive, but I’d stay again if I needed to for a night.
