If you just need a place to hang your hat for a night because you've got too much to do during the day, this place will suffice. C'mon, it's a Super 8, the Parker House it ain't. My room is clean and spacious, it appears to have been updated recently, There is a workspace, a microwave, refrigerator with freezer, iron and ironing board, flat screen television, and something I haven't seen in awhile - the paper strip on the toilet that says, "Sanitized for your protection." I haven't seen one of those in years!
My bed spring had an odd sound to it when I sat down, it could best be described as Chewbacca talking to Han Solo. It stayed quiet all night except when I got up and came back to bed. "It's okay, Chewie, I'm going back to sleep now."
The good news is there is in-room coffee, a real, 4-cup coffee pot, not the usual simulated K-cup toy Easy Bake coffee maker! The bad news is that the supplied coffee packet is really awful. Luckily, there is a nearby Kwik Star so there is a nearby supply of Karuba coffee.
Down in the lobby, there is a small breakfast nook that in our nearly-post-Covid world is open. It's a bit sparse but you'll find cereal, juice, fruit, sausage patties and eggs, and a roll-your-own waffle iron. It's the first open breakfast I've seen in over a year so it was a welcome site. It's about what you'd expect.
One drawback, the outside security door is not secure. Lock yourself into your room, okay?
