Very basic hotel, great front desk staff. Very friendly staff. Clean hotel, rooms were clean but in need of some minor repairs. The boxed breakfast is a great idea but could have some better options. We did enjoy that we didn’t have to go down to a room full of people in the morning for breakfast just wish there were better options to order from. Overall great stay for a quick overnight visit.

Traver
Beds and pillows awsome. Very comfortable. Very quiet. The man at the desk helped us carry luggage in seeing that the snow was so bad and I had 2 small children. Staff were asking every day if there was anything we needed, and if we were enjoying our stay. Gave suggestions for things the kids could do.

It was a quick overnight stay prior to flying out of TVC. Aside from a few cobwebs above the bed on the ceiling, everything was great and would highly recommend to others.
