Room was clean, a bit antiseptic (just, empty, clear, clean space). But I have to say, it was quiet and the bed and pillows were remarkably good. I lay down and I involuntarily smiled because it felt so good. For the price, it was excellent. Would definitely stay again as a sleeping spot on a cross country road trip.

Once we complained about the mold and mildew they accused us of smoking in our room. Which was bogus. I simply wanted attention brought to the mold.

The room was clean. The bathroom needed a little touching up in the floor, and baseboard area. The shower control needed replacing. Also, no coffee maker in the room. At this time, there was no ice machine, but the clerk did get me some. The staff was friendly, and helpful. Particularly the lady working the afternoon shift. The continental breakfast was just okay.
