Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Very comfortable bed and pillows. Clean. Good breakfast including eggs, sausage, breads, oatmeal and toppings, cereals and fruit. The coffee wasn’t the best - more like a drizzle of dark stuff followed by hot water. Lighting isn’t bright enough in the bathroom or bedroom. It is very difficult to see and get into the parking lot. You’re entering literally off the highway, and there’s construction in front of the building. It’s hard to see the driveway entrance.
