Staff were friendly. Check in was smooth. The room was clean but feel like it could use a couple of updates - just seems like the carpet and shower grout are old. Had no concerns about hygienic conditions or anything but just something to consider.

The location and staff were great. A very loud cargo train passed the hotel and my room #419, both nights, 10 PM, 12 AM,1 AM, 3 AM.
The tracks run parallel to the parking lot. All else was fine.
The hotel staff was friendly and knowledgeable. My room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was also good. I would definitely stay again if in the area.
