6/10 Good

This was a last minute booking because our original reservation was at the best western down the road and that was an awful, dirty place (immediately checked out). So, I booked this place late at night. Staff was friendly and kind. Room smelled weird and the fridge was so loud with the vibrations. Heater wouldn’t turn off, so thankfully we had a stand up fan in the room so we opened the door and put it in front of it to blow in the cool air. Beds were ok, room was clean, shower had good pressure, but almost $200 for the night was definitely not worth it.

Clean room, nice staff at check in and they were very helpful when I didn't know how to operate the tv. The beds were very comfortable with lots of pillows and even my husband liked them and he is very picky. It was quiet and near places to eat.
