Over all our stay was fairly decent. It was a bit noisy (right off the 99 so to be expected). The staff that checked us in was wonderful. We had an issue with the tv in our room but it was fixed it immediately. The room was clean and the A/C worked great. Dennys is just a short walk through the parking lot and lots of convenient shopping nearby
