    Can't say I am particularly impressed. Small rooms, breakfast was a complete miss. Staff was helpful but not always friendly or cheerful. Could hear those above me quite clearly. Lots of hallway & roadway noise.

    Not bad, just okay. The bathroom in my room wasn't all that clean. The shower had engrained dirt and the floor had foot prints. The sink drain has visible mold. The room was very compact but I didn't mind since it was just me and a short stay. The staff members I had interacted with are not friendly or welcoming. My digital key and mobile check-in plan didn't work because nothing was approved on their end. The location was super confusing at night - I wasn't able to turn left into the main drive (one way) and bypassed the entrance near the Biggby sign. When I attempted to turnaround, I ended up taking the highway on ramp after the light.
