Don’t judge this book by its cover.

I’ll be honest, when we drove up we were worried. The exterior looks dated, but we just needed a room for the football hall of fame game so we kept an open mind. The interior did not match the exterior. Everything was updated and well kept. The man at the front desk was friendly and checked me in right away. He gave me room keys and offered to carry our luggage (I declined since we were on the first floor). Our room was adequate sized and had a small fridge and microwave. The air conditioner worked and the bathroom was clean. The bed was large and comfortable. The only complaint was there was a loose piece of tile in the floor and we both tripped over it, but that’s nothing big. The free breakfast in the morning had hot items and standard continental items and was well stocked. For a one night stay we really can’t complain. It was close to the highway but the room was quiet and we got a decent nights sleep. We would stay here again if we were in the area.

Bed was very comfortable. But there was no hand soap and the bath towels were very thin. We bought soap and a towel at wal-mart. Also there was no blow dryer to dry my hair.

The room was huge, clean and comfortable. They are not a new place so it isn’t fancy - tiny bath towels and everything could use a new coat of paint. The only spot that was kind of gross was the lobby area - so much dust and cobwebs around the chairs and stuff. Room was cleaner than the common areas.

Overnight stay

Except for some other residents in the early evening it was a quiet night. Firehouse Grill and Pub / Danny Boys combined restaurant was a short drive and offered a nice outside setting with many food options including a great pizza and salad.

For the price it’s ok

Our first 3 days we didn’t have breakfast as their food license expired during our stay and the administration did not make other arrangements for their guests because of this. I would have appreciated if they would of reached out to guests with snacks or something to replace their breakfast. No hairdryers no coffeemaker in the rooms. Rooms are very clean and comfortable.

Ok, I read all the reviews and I thought, it seems many people were happy, and some people hated it. First off, there’s no way this place should have an “excellent” rating. It’s obvious they’re trying, but right away I was unhappy because my room literally didn’t lock. So I needed to make a second trip out to the car, but I could just push really hard on the room door and it popped right open. I was shocked! As a single female traveler, this made me very nervous. When I told the front staff, it was like she wasn’t surprised at all with my complaint. I’m thinking, geee how often do people tell you the room door doesn’t lock?? Anyway, I was honestly also very concerned about the parking lot and the people walking around. The whole vibe was just sketchy. To the owners… it would probably help your vibe if you didn’t have the 18 wheelers parked right in front. I literally felt like I was arriving at a truck stop which made me , I don’t know, it didn’t seem like a regular hotel, it felt like a truck stop. So, on the good side, once I was given a different room, and I was safely locked in my room for the night, it was comfortable. Comfortable bed. I did check for bed bugs and saw no evidence. It was pretty quiet. The air conditioning worked fine. Things seemed clean, there is no carpet… the whole thing was tile floor. The counter in the bathroom was a little janky piece of wood screwed to the wall. It was weird because everything else was pretty decently done. Fix Doors!!!!

Safe and sufficient

It’s a sufficient one night stop for a trip. No pool. Believe they are under fairly new management and are trying their hardest to upgrade but you can feel it in some parts of the hotel (bathroom trim, side chairs are stained and yucky).
