A quiet place to stay. The room was nice & clean. Friendly staff. Parking was close to our room so we could see our vehicle. Could use some more vending machines. Would definitely do again.

The rooms were clean and nicely appointed although they could use some updating. The hotel is undergoing a franchise change so the staff are hoping some money gets put into upgrades. The staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast was decent. There were waffles, eggs, sausage, hash rounds, cereal, yogurt, juices, and breads. The only thing we would have liked on the bar was some fresh fruit. There are washer/dryers on the 2nd floor.

I was overall satisfied with this property. The areas that needed attention looked like they were in the process of being renovated. The free breakfast exceeded my expectations. Most of the staff were friendly and helpful. Two big complaints were they gave someone a room key to my room without verifying with me that it was ok. They took the person at their word that they were my father, which he was. But they should have called and verified that it was okay. The second complaint was the designated smoking area was right out the front door where everyone loads and unloads their vehicles. You and your stuff is being permeated with cigarette smoke.

Convenient hotel This used to be a Hampton Inn but they lost their licence so now it is a Cherokee Inn. TV did NOT work for both nights. Smoke detector was removed and laying on the dresser, smelled like mold. Team members not engaging. Wow what a big difference from what it used to be. Now it is a Choice hotel and not good at all. Very Poor

Everyone is very nice and the property is clean. Currently being renovated. The only downside was the bed, it was only 3 pillows on a king bed... found 1 more in the closet but they mashed down to nothing

The property is in the middle of major upgrading - changing from one brand to another; still, the interior was clean, well appointed and inviting. The staff was welcoming and well trained. The outside needs signs to indicate it is open, because it looks like it is closed.
