Nice furnishings, fairly new. Breakfast was great-eggs, bacon, pancakes, cereal, toast ,fruit, pastries, the attendant kept everything well stocked. Staff at the front desk pleasant. Would definitely stay again.

My family stayed at this hotel for one night and had no problems. Check in went smoothly and shortly after we arrived to our room a staff member was at our door with the roll-away bed that we had requested. The rooms were fine. The bed was very comfortable and every thing was clean. The tv was an old CRT... More

Expected a bit more. Slow front desk service, nice, but slow and tended to get themselves monopolized by 1 check in at a time. Breakfast was very so-so and attendant telling customers how she "hates" sausage gravy but that guests could "go ahead and have it if they wanted". A little wierd. Plumbing poor with Toilet always backing up.

Standard hotel. Clean with no surprises. Staff was exceptionally nice. My room had a malfunctioning heater that made noise, But these things happen and I certainly wouldn't hold it against them. Internet was pretty fast. Was able to stream video and skype with relative ease. Mattress was hard and bouncy. Kind of like a slab of concrete mounted on springs.

Somewhat dated HIE. Old tube type Zenith TV (do they even make Zenith anymore?). Service below par, as a Priority Club member we often receive complementary water bottles and even snacks and NOTHING at this HIE. Also more expensive than other HIE's in similar suburban neighborhoods. Not good value for the money -- skip this one if you have an... More
