We enjoyed staying here which was conveniently located near the highway (but far enough so you don't hear the noise), restaurants, and the town. The rooms were nice and clean which included a full fridge, microwave, small stove, dishwasher, coffee pot and kitchen supplies. The bed was firm, and pillows were great (at least to us). There was plenty of room to spread out to put your clothes / things in closet. Only thing that they didn't have is a room safe which would've been nice to have. Breakfast was wonderful with the selection of different items from eggs / omelets / hard boiled eggs, sausage / bacon, pancakes / French toast or make it yourself waffles. Every day had different options. They also had the usual like oatmeal, cereal, assorted yogurts / breads / pastries / muffins, fresh fruits, juices / milk, coffee / tea. It was nice to have the microwave and toaster in the room so that I could reheat or toast my bread. We enjoyed using the indoor jacuzzi and the fitness center. Overall, this hotel is nice, and we wouldn't mind staying here again in the near future.

Our stay at the Towne Place suites was great. The rooms have been updated, there was some wear and tear around the bottom of the furniture but I am sure that is just from customers and cleaning. We stayed in a two bedroom and found it very spacious. We will consider it again next time we are in town visiting my college kid.
