Breakfast at the attached diner was very pleasant. The 3 free choices offered (cooked to order) or the option of $5 off any menu item was a nice change from the standard cereal, waffle station, steam table eggs.

Each bed came with two small pillows. We asked for extra pillows twice and did not get any. The shower had very low water pressure and did not drain. The outlet in the bathroom did not work. The place was fairly clean but not up to the expectations for the price.

Comfortable bed. Room at top of stairs attributed to a lot of people running up and down the hall late night. But the diner had good food and an amazing devils food cake

Boo Hiss Boo! I want a quick breakfast!

Very unhappy that the hotel did NOT supply breakfast, instead a stupid coupon to the attached restaurant. Will never stay here again, and I travel a bunch. Just want breakfast at the restaurant, without the hassle of waiting in line at a restaurant!

Service was terrible at best. No one at front desk for over 20 minutes and then when he showed up gave us attitude for wanting to check in. We got the jacuzzi room with early shaped tub and water was luke warm and when you turned on jets nasty water that was rust colored and freezing came out.. DISGUSTING! At check out we were wanting to talk to someone and they walked by us 2-3 times never stopped at desk to check us out so I tossed room key on counter and left. 170.00 for this was insane..
