I liked the price and thats about it. Sometimes you don't even get what you pay for. The place was dirty. My room smelled like a cheap motel 6. Damp rid above the microwave. A dehumidifier near the AC. Small TV on a desk. Carpets in halls and room dirty. Didn't remove my socks. Breakfast was nothing more than a continental style. Limited choices and no freshly made coffee. Coffee comes out of a dispenser like the OJ. Hall ice machine gone and wires-plugs exposed. Won't do this place again unless I'm desperate.

Nice clean rooms, comforatble beds, close to a lot of dining options. Near I-75 but could not hear traffic with A/C on. Decent breakfast and had a tailgate for football game (free burgers, hot dogs, chicken wings). Shuttle to games was nice but we didn't take as we had our own transportation.
