Property in very good condition. Spacious room, very clean. Helpful staff. Breakfast was good. The hotel has many rooms, and is efficient for a stay when travelling. Not exactly charming, and location requires you to drive for dinner.

Food was adequate, but wonderful not to have to eat with throw away plates and utensils; Room was great, even had real coffee mugs not throw away styrofoam for our coffee.
Julie at the front desk went out of her way to make sure we had everything we needed.
