Overall good. Good location

I stopped in this Choice Hotels property while in the area for business. I chose the hotel since I have stayed in most of the hotels in the area such as the three Marriott properties down the road, the all-new Holiday Inn Express and the Hampton since its right next door to the Byway Brewery. One of the reasons I choose this hotel was the price. Most of the hotels in the area were extremely high..( conventions? Dunes? ) that night. The reviews seemed to be pretty good for this hotel as well. First off this hotel is a little off the beaten path, tucked away in a little alcove off the highway but tucked away in a secure location so one star for that. It s also two minutes away from a Starbucks, JJ Fish and Chicken and across the road from Walmart and Cabellas'. From the perspective of location, it's nicely situated in a secure compound with lots of parking. I checked in quite easily to this massive property and got the King Room I had reserved. Check-in was seamless and the staff were very nice. I got my key and went to my room. The room itself was nothing special, it had a lingering musty smell, the AC/Heat unit was a little noisy. There were some chips and dents in the furniture, the carpet looked old and the room itself was a little dreary. My bathroom was spotless and very clean so that's a plus. I did get a good nights sleep. The gym was okay and no one was using it, it does need a modernization. The cool thing is its right off the pool which is the hotels' main attraction. I didn't actually use the pool but it was packed with kids and grown-ups. The breakfast was a saving grace with multiple options for the calorie counter and those who indulge. The food was fresh, well prepared and the staff working the breakfast area were attentive and refilling food stations when needed. Pros - Location, Price, Pool Cons - A little on the tired side and in need of a facelift, The fitness centre is okay but could use modernization, no USB ports and hard to find places to plugin, and the wifi was okay not blazing fast but I was able to surf and send emails. Will I stay here again? I might give it a second chance.

Great experience the staff is very helpful and responsive! Had a major problem in the kitchen sink and once notified it was addressed immediately! I've been hre for a few months and have developed a warm and friendly relationship with the staff from the housekeepers all the way to the manager. The same great courteous attitude is reflected all the way through! It's why I extended my stay, because they make me very comfortable!

There was so much wrong with this hotel.
