We were attending an event in the area and needed a place to stay. The prices are reasonable. There's plenty of parking. The rooms are big. There's hot water. The staff were friendly. All in all, it's a perfectly acceptable place to stay. As long as you don't expect luxury or charm, you won't be disappointed. Our suite had a living room with rollout coachbed and kitchen, and a separate bedroom. It's all a bit dated (the TV has a video - yes, VHS! - player attached). We never used the kitchen but it's well appointed. I also never used the hotel gym, which had plenty of exercise machines. There's a diner and a steakhouse across the street so you are not totally isolated, even if the hotel is on one of those soulless stretches of America exurbia right off an interstate. All in all, you're probably here because you're attending an event in the area and aren't going to be spending much time at the hotel and all you need is a comfortable bed and a shower. It's perfectly fine for that.
