	"Located in an industrial area. There was a shampoo bottle on the floor of our room with hair on it when we arrived. The wireless Internet was unreliable. Breakfast was all carbs. The employees were polite and helpful, but we felt we overpaid and don't recommend this hotel.2017-08-01 "
"Seemed overpriced. Our hotel room wasn't cleaned 2 of the 4 days we stayed. Breakfast was a joke. Don't stay here.2016-08-15 "
