Nice updated minimalist hotel
The old Best Western hotel. It has been renovated and done nicely. Breakfast was minimal, no coffee pot in the room, had to go to the lobby for a cup of coffee. The bed sheets are polyester and you sweat! The bed pillows were horrible....as soon as you lay head down the pillow stuffing just separates, may as well have no pillows at all! As much as we love that location and have stayed at that hotel for the past 15 yrs or so, I don't think we'll stay again, just not our type of hotel. Too minimalist

Hilton properties that I’ve stayed at had a better selection for breakfast, I’ve stayed at this hotel when it was the holiday Inn and best Western every morning, they had pancakes, French toast, eggs, yogurt, parfaits, since Spock took it over it has bagels. Unfortunately, it had no gluten-free items that I could eat.

Good for the price
The hotel was located in a good location even though it can be a little noisy with the traffic on the roads. Rooms have been renovated and are clean. They do need to improve their bedding. The pillows were way too soft and uncomfortable and the mattress sagged on the one side. The maid service was just okay, just straighten bed and replenished towels.

Location is less than ideal for the area. Having said that, Hilton staff are excellent, I cancelled my reservation 10 minutes after making it and Expedia wanted to charge me the equivalent of a one night stay penalty. Hilton managed the issue for me in a very timely and effective manner. Yay Hilton! Boooo Expedia.
