Stayed here for a tour of BSU - highly recommend! First, probably the nicest staff I’ve ever experienced at a hotel. Second, breakfast was amazing! Super impressed with all the offerings. Room was clean, beds comfortable, parking easy. Hands down the best value for level of experience received!

There was a bunch of stuff in the carpet that hadn't been vacuumed up. Somebody had had a party or something. There were stains of some sort all over the heater/ac unit. Cobwebs everywhere. Up by the smoke alarm amongst other places. Looks like there was snot blown all over the wall. The smell inside the hallway smelled of glue and some other chemical. And I have pictures if anybody wants to contest this. I was having surgery and got this place for my mother and my wife because I had good reviews. Little embarrassing to be honest. So thanks for that.
