False advertising. No breakfast included. Ever. Then on 2-26 they took away the free coffee in the lobby. Staff was a true blessing. Bed was comfortable. Definitely needs updated.

Check-in was pleasant. Room was supposed to be smoke free but reeked of cigarette smoke. Bed was clean and comfortable. Toilet seat was loose and falling off the toilet, a hazard and hotel room itself was acceptable for laying your head down for the night but outside of the room was dirty and unkempt.

Thats what i get for going with the cheapest option. Seemed like a drug hotel. The walls seemed paper thin and i could clearly hear someone vomiting. The room smelled like cigarettes which i cannot stand and did not want all my clothes to take on the odor. The door was barely on the frame. I didn't feel safe leaving anything in my room or car. Left and ended up getting a room at Tru. One positive was the lady at the desk was nice.

Overall average experience. I had high hopes based on other reviews, however the room was not well cleaned (sponge left on top of the mirror, food product in the kitchenette, hole through the bathroom door) and guests were shouting well into the night. Pleasantly surprised by a grab-and-go breakfast. Very close proximity to the Pearson VUE testing center, but overall would not recommend to others planning a stay to take their exams.

First off, supposed to be a non smoking facility. I get checked in as soon as I open my room got smacked in the face with heavy smoke smell! Bathroom door was missing door knob and has hole from being kicked in! Lady at desk was nice enough for me to switch rooms. We checked another room was still smoky. Checked a 3rd room was okay however heard all the highway noise. Also felt unsafe there. Decided to just leave and go sleep in the car somewhere far from there. Grounds was filthy with used condoms in parking lot!

The hotel was much more run down than the photos make it seem. There was caution tape everywhere, no electrical outlets were covered, there were sharpie drawings all over the walls inside the room, holes in doors, and the carpet was more than questionable. The stains on the walls were concerning but could have been easily cleaned. I'm not sure how this hotel has a 6/10. We left a day early.
