My family and I were very pleased with our stay here. We were traveling back from a funeral in Chattanooga, TN and we were very ready to get out of that car when we reached Dayton.
The lobby was gorgeous and the front desk clerk was very friendly. We had made our reservations online (used the e-saver discount and saved $30 per room!) and we checked in in a matter of minutes. We stayed on the second floor, which was a non-smoking floor, and there was no odor. The rooms were very clean (our hotel the night before had a dirty tub and a toilet that wouldn't flush, a blood stained pillow and another pillow with mold on it) and nice.
We had two queen beds in our room (we have 3 kids) and we had plenty of room for the five of us. The kids loved the pool, how cool it was to go under the divider and swim outside. The pool isn't overly big, but there was plenty of room. The popcorn and soda in the lobby was very nice. We met with family members who lived in the area and sat in the lobby for over an hour and talked with each other. The lobby area was quiet.
The Quickstart breakfast was much appreciated in contrast to the cold cereal and toast we had the morning before at another hotel. You could make your own waffles, there was scrambled eggs, sausage, biscuits and gravy, bagels, muffins, etc. Coffee, juice, milk, and the soda machine was available for beverages. The morning breakfast was a little chaotic, a few pre-teens and teens were being a little rambunctious, something I wouldn't get upset with the hotel over. The parents are to blame for that one. The rest of the patrons were very polite.
This is our new hotel chain of choice, I would recommend this hotel to anyone!
