Spark is an excellent hotel. The rooms are clean and beds are comfy. The pool area is gorgeous. We stayed for 5 nights and had zero problems. The breakfast could use some work but it is ok. Bagels, cereal, and yogurt parfaits.

First, this is a motel, not a hotel. I do not believe that was adequately made clear during the reservation. Regardless, the property is clean and well maintained. Also has a nice pool with a hot tub and bar. Would stay again but only if warm outside. I stayed while it was cold outside so I did not get to the pool, etc.

The room was clean, amenities were fine, the staff was friendly, the breakfast was not rich but decent to get you going for the day. And those are important things However the coffee was terrible, like hot mud water. No coffee makers in the rooms but 24 hrs in the lobby. I had it for breakfast, when supposed to be fresh, couldn't drink more than 3 sips.
