The hotel outside was nice looking. It wasn’t bad but our door wouldn’t stay closed. We had to deadbolt it just for it the be closed and lock.

Hotel RIGHT NEXT TO THE FREIGHT LINES
All aspects of service was okay.
The main problem is location
IT IS RIGHT NEXT TO THE FREIGHT LINES. The trains keep blasting their horn all night.
So you will not get ANY sleep

Overall a nice place to stay although the front of property by highway is overgrown but I believe that would be the city’s responsibility. Clean, quiet and close to shopping.
