I did not get any amount of sleep. From noisy neighbors to the loud street outside with snow plows and semis going by at every hour of the night. I did not sleep. I am on a work trip.

The lobby was beautiful and not what I expected. Although located right on the highway there was very little noise. (I had the room farthest away from the road.) It was clean and comfortable, although nothing spectacular, I thought it was great value for the price.

Friendly staff and convenient for our 3-day event. Though linens and towels were all clean, the mattresses were old and saggy. The walk-in shower was a nice amenity, as well as solid wifi and tv service.
