What I didn't like was the main door to hotel rooms didn't have a lock. This is the safety issue! Anyone can come in and out. The door should remain locked all the time and can be accessed only by the guests with the access key.

We checked in using a kiosk with a virtual link to someone offsite. He was a good sport since we had teenagers with us. Owner told me later they were testing the use of the kiosk because he can’t find employees. There were a variety of guests from families to a group of older women. Rooms were clean and pics were accurate. Complimentary breakfast room has seating for about 6-8 so prepare to eat in your room. No protein choices at breakfast when we were there. We were in town for an event so basically at hotel at night.

The breakfast area was clean and inviting. Only to have curdled milk in container on counter. Lack of wafflemix, old out of date hard cereal, and no coffee in coffee holder. This was all an hour before breakfast time was over. Both days.

Walls are paper thin, pillows are tiny, you talk to a person on a screen for check in, and we skipped the morning shower - bugs started crawling out of the drain and there was hair stuck in the drain as well. 0 stars - stay somewhere else if you can. The cheaper rate wasn’t worth it.

So-so stay. A place to sleep.

For the most part, it clean and comfortable. Regarding the free breakfast… for a 7 day stay, I found it available 3 days. Two days with no coffee. Even in the room when they cleaned it it was not restocked with coffee. Located nicely near a Perkins and McDonald’s, Target all with in walking distance.
