Best for

This hotel is best suited to budget-minded travelers who want a simple, drive-up friendly base on US-30 with free parking and in-room essentials like a microwave and mini-fridge.

Travel tips

Plan to arrive by car: the hotel is on Route 30 and the surrounding points of interest listed are easiest to reach by driving. If you’re a light sleeper, consider bringing earplugs, as guests mention that rooms can be noisy and not well soundproofed. If you need extra in-room convenience, ask about upgraded rooms with kitchenettes or whirlpool tubs when booking.

What guests say

Guest feedback commonly points to a convenient location and generally efficient check-in, with some mentions of professional or helpful staff. Room condition and cleanliness are inconsistent: some guests report clean bedding and working A/C, microwave, and refrigerator, while others describe dirty carpets and a need for deeper cleaning. Noise is another recurring concern, with reports that rooms are not well soundproofed and nearby guests can disrupt sleep. Amenities beyond the basics are limited; at least one guest noted no breakfast service, aligning with a no-frills positioning.
