My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The room was clean, spacious, and cozy, which made for an excellent stay. I loved the discounts offered and the great location with plenty of nearby restaurants. However, I was surprised to find a baggie with white powder and cheese nips under the bed, which was not a pleasant discovery.

I had a great stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious, clean, and comfortable with a full kitchen setup. The accessibility features like grab bars in the accessible room were handy. The location was convenient, though a larger seating area would have been ideal. The dining options were plentiful, perfect for families on the go. Overall, a good value for the price.

My stay at MainStay Suites was a mixed experience. The rooms were extremely spacious with convenient amenities like a full fridge and mini stovetop, but they looked old and worn, and the carpets definitely needed replacing. The service was friendly, though there were slight cleanliness issues in the room. The location was convenient with nearby food options, but the cleanliness upon arrival was lacking. The dining options were better than expected with good variety, and the facilities were well-kept.

My stay at MainStay Suites in a 2 queen suite was a bit of a mixed bag. The room was a bit dirty with unexpected surprises under the bed, but the beds were super comfortable. The service, however, was lacking. The location was convenient for State Fair/Fonner Park activities, but the cleanliness issue was a letdown for a new hotel. The dining experience had some good options, especially for a quick meal in the morning.

The hotel had a spacious room with expanded amenities but was not well cleaned upon arrival. The location was very convenient, close to good restaurants, but a few miles off the main interstate. The dining experience was good, with a variety of options but slim for those with dietary restrictions. The hotel provided friendly service.

The hotel offers spacious, clean, and quiet rooms with a cozy apartment-like feel and convenient amenities like a sofa and a full kitchen. The location is in a quieter part of town but close to various dining options and shopping areas. The dining experience provides a typical but satisfying breakfast. Overall, a comfortable and value-driven stay with some minor drawbacks.
