My husband I stayed here while attending a concert at Cable Dahmer and it was perfect! The hotel is clean and welcoming, the staff was friendly and helpful and the property felt safe. The rooms were nice and comfortable and there was easy access to I-70. We would stay here again anytime!

Waited in the lobby for an hour and 20 mins to check into our room. Frustrating as 15 plus other people all were able to check into theirs. Got to the room and tv didn't work. Room was clean and bed was comfortable.

I was pleased with the suite, cleanliness and amenities. There was a noise coming from the refrigerated which occurred almost all night, like every 20-30 minutes and the humming from the bathroom fan which we could not turn off.
