Clean hotel

Clean room, small pillows, poor bedside light fixtures. Breakfast consisted of cold scrambled eggs, thinnest bacon I have seen in years. A several days old bagel wrapped in plastic. Hotels.com did not notify the hotel of my reservation so had to charge my credit card twice. The clerk was nice and helpful.
