7.0/10

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were clean and adequately spacious, but the fact that they are never on the first floor could be an issue in emergencies. The fan in my room was unbearably loud, forcing me to switch rooms, which was a hassle. On the plus side, the staff fixed me up with an even better price and were kind and courteous throughout my stay. The location is convenient to the highway, but the musty smell and lack of coffee were disappointing. The dining was fine, with the additional option of gluten-free muffins, although not the best I've ever had. The facilities were okay overall.
