Breakfast was pretty weak. Super tiny breakfast area. Had to go down the road to a sister hotel to use the pool and hot tub, which was not real convenient. But the price was very good, room was clean, and I guess you get what you pay for.

The room was clean and smelled nice. Bedding was fresh. When we needed more towels, the front desk was helpful and responsive. The continental breakfast was simple. Nothing wrong with that, but if you want protein options for breakfast, pack your own. Also if you are Gluten Free as some of our guests were, pack your own. Breakfast bowls were a big hit! Our room did have a fridge and microwave.
