Not the best hotel stay

The room was quiet. The hotel is working on updating. Our room Was not very clean. The tub of the shower was dirty. The shampoo & soap dispensers in the shower were empty. The food provided in the breakfast buffet was low quality. The turkey sausage was not edible. Fake scrambled eggs. Lukewarm sausage & gravy. The hotel website stated that this hotel had a hot tub. There is no hot tub. They only had a pool.

Acron Game

To attend an athletic event. Room great, staff very good, continental breakfast very good. BUT the room came with ear plugs. WOW, they were really needed too. So much road noise!!! All most all night too. This would be an awesome hotel if I were “very” hard of hearing…..

Great location for food, terrible for sleep.

Hotel is nice and within walking distance to many restaurants and shops. HOWEVER, if you'd like a good night's sleep- you won't get it here. Not the hotel's fault, but ...the street racing that started at 9:30 and went until 2or 3.... I had ear plugs in and still couldn't sleep. The roaring engines were so loud. It was awful. I was taljing in the phone and the person on the other end could hear it!
