Nice property in a convenient location for a one night stay. Clean and appropriate for our travel needs. Will say the dog hallway (we didn't bring our dogs) had some carpet issues but being pet friendly we understood that could happen.

The room was very clean & bed comfortable. There was a nice variety for breakfast & food fresh & hot. There was always a bowl of apples sitting out which was great for a late evening snack. The location is very handy for going to the state fair. We will definitely stay here again!
