Pros (+) Hotel room was spacious and clean. Plenty of parking.
Cons (-) The property looks a little run down on the outside. And the breakfast wasn't great, but it was on par with other free breakfasts I've had.

Pros (+) My room was upgraded when I checked in as they realized Kayak put me in a handicap room instead of a regular room. I appreciated the upgrade from Best Western. The room was large and spacious with several extra amenities, a fireplace, and big desk which I used.
