"At the time I stayed at this property there was a great deal of remodel and repair going on. Areas were roped off in the parking lot, cardboard boxes of new stuff sitting in the lobby, etc. The room I received was exceptional, and nice and clean. The outside windows were covered with plastic for exterior painting, but the room itself was very good. All this with a free breakfast!"
