Asked about shampoo and conditioner, was told it would be on the wall in the shower, it was not. Breakfast was the worst ever. Waffles was the only warm item.

Smelly room

Room smelled oil and grease due to rooms mostly for men who work the oilfields. I requested another room but was denied. Will not be staying there again.

This hotel is super clean & nice! The only downside is for the breakfast.. the only protean was boiled eggs. Lots of fruit, bread choices & cereals. Would consider if more of a continental INSTEAD of full.
