The stay was decent. We booked a room with 2 queen beds but ended up with a room with one king. We were unable to move rooms because hotel was full.
The hotel staff was very unfriendly and not helpful.
I’ve stayed here several times, because is one of few hotel brands that have full size fridge/freezer. I don’t have any problems with the hotels, but would suggest one requests a room on the top floor if you are sensitive to noises or stomping on the ceiling. Am noticing the hotels are moving away from carpeted floors. I totally get the practicality of this for cleaning, but can be horrible when there are people above you that are unaware of how hard they walk. Like a stampede going on upstairs. Will stay again, but only if can get a top floor room…happening too often lately.
Only 2 things were the little bugs that came out of the faucet in the bathroom. Springtails. Theyre harmless but still gross. And a big stain in the center of the recliner.
The bed was extremely comfortable and the room was nice & clean. Its an extended stay room so my only suggestion is it needs some plastic cups and paper plates in the room.
Room was clean and comfortable. Staff was great. Very friendly and welcoming… and very patient with a customer who was irate because his dog friendly room was not yet ready when he arrived. They all did a great job at staying calm and apologetic and tried to reassure him that they were working on finishing the room and it would be ready shortly.
I was happy with what I got for the price I paid. I got to have my own full kitchen with stove, microwave, fridge and a dishwasher with utensils. I was on business for an extended stay and it was a gamechanger for me personally. I was able to retreat to my hotel room when I was done with work daily and felt right at home. They gave free breakfast daily and coffee throughout. The staff was respectful, friendly and experience with them was seamless.
Decent location, mostly quiet area, room layout was good for the size, however the bathroom ran is loud and the fan and bathroom light only power on or off together. Can't use the bathroom light only, so night trips are disruptive.
