Avoid this Location

The hotel is situated 100 feet from active railroad tracks. The freight trains, blowing their horns, came through around 10PM and 4 AM. Absolutely terrible location. The shower doors did not close completely, leaving the floor to get wet. I booked through Hotels.com VIP Gold and the hotel did not recognize it.

Walked in and was a line 3 people deep to check in. Only one person was working and she was getting slammed. Phone ringing off the hook. She needed more help. This is an ok place for a very quick overnight trip. I don’t think we would stay at this property again.

Bad hotel

This hotel is an area with nothing but industrial buildings. Any attractions in or near the city require a complicated route of highways with challenging exits and changes. The person at the front desk when we arrived took a very long time to acknowledge that we were trying to check in (at the standard afternoon check in time), and had an unprofessional demeanor in general. The room was okay, but bed linens smelled like cabbage or broccoli, as did the hotel's laundry facility down the hall. The sofa bed was so uncomfortable that my son opted to sleep on the floor. None of us got a good night's sleep. Avoid this hotel!

Perfect!

My only recommendation for future stays is replenishment of breakfast options. We came in during the first hour and several breakfast options were already out. Otherwise excellent property, excellent staff, price qas surprising for the excellent condition of the property.
