The staff was extremely nice and kind. Easy on and off of the highway.

Room smelled strongly of cigarette smoke. No microwave in room. Hotel interior looks a bit worn. Breakfast selection okay.

To explain my use of stars, because I do not admire a system that gives five stars to average services. The stars should have a normal distribution, with three stars being the most common - i.e. *** indicates fair / expected value for money. **** indicates better than expected; and ***** is outstanding. ** is poor, and * is abysmal. I stayed one night for about $95.00 and while a little costly, the room was fine - i.e. as expected which leads to a three star rating. I wanted to stay again three nights later, and was quoted $300. That is, the same three star service, but for three times greater cost - which arithmetically reduces the rating to one star. But the price gouging revealed that the hotel / chain was telling fibs when it was advocating its own services; and clearly ranks making a profit over providing a good service. So, with that, it lost its single star. I'll now consider finding another chain - although I fear all follow the same exploitational philosophy.
