- DLDon LuepnitzDec 23, 20254.0good sized rooms, nice and clean. everything worked, free parking, full breakfast, only downside it is right next to the freeway , so some road noise, but would stay here again.
- JLJ. LopezDec 11, 20255.0We had a great stay at this location. We travel with our dogs and this location has lots of grass areas to walk them around. The room and dining area were very clean. The pancake machine was not working. Having a small fridge and microwave in the room was also a plus. If you are a light sleeper ask for a room on the opposite side from the freeway. If you get a room on the freeway side it is right next to it so you hear all the cars and semis throughout the night. Staff were great. Will definitely consider this location if I am in the area again.
