Very clean and comfortable I slept really well. 10 out of 10!
A note at the front desk said they would be back in 15 minutes. It was 25. That was checkin. Breakfast in the morning was one already cold pot of coffee. The TV did not work.
On the positive, the room was clean.
This place is incredibly dirty and not well-maintained. I don't think it meets the standard for listing on Expedia. Nearly all aspects of the room were very poor.
Thank You for a such affordable room rate. Service was great, room was good. Bed was comfortable. TV channels selections was great. No issues. Plan on coming back when I'm in town again.

I book my room around 7:30-8 pm on the app, very easy to use and got a great room for a great price at that time (booking same day)
The staff was friendly and helpful. We were very satisfied with the room and the location was convenient to everything (family, chutch, shopping). We would be happy to stay here next time we're in town.
