We had a really nice stay here. I liked that it wasn't at the main Joplin exit because there was less traffic and commotion around the hotel. It was right next door to a large convenience store with an Iron Skillet, Caribou Coffee, Taco Bell, and one other restaurant I can't remember the name of. You get a discount at any of these establishments by showing your key card, so that was nice. Everything was clean, and everyone I encountered at the front desk and all of cleaning staff I ran across was friendly. I can't speak as to the breakfast because we didn't eat there, but it looked like they had the typical hotel breakfast. Not many negatives, it is close to the highway so we did hear some highway noise overnight, but after the first night I turned on my app with rain/music sounds and that drowned it out and it didn't bother us after the first night. The fridge wasn't very cold, so we had use a cooler to keep our drinks cold. We didn't like the bathroom door, instead of a "regular" door, it was a pocket sliding door. If you opened it all the way it was very difficult to get back out, there was nothing to grab onto. All of those were minor drawbacks, and I would definitely stay here again if in the area.
