Great staff very helpful. check-in was fast and easy. Love the convenience of the parking lot door. Rooms were very clean and well put together. He had all the amenities you needed. Breakfast was good. The coffee cup was a little tiny, but you have a coffee maker in your room. Very happy with my stay g I will be back....The only thing I didn't like was there were a lot of cigarette butt out in the parking lot.

Staff (3 ladies @ desk) were great. Property in disrepair, pool closed. Rooms nice/clean/beds comfy. Continental breakfast "good". Would stay again.

Better than i expected!
The initial check in is confusing but our room was fine. We traveled with our daughter & dog & we had an entrance interior & exterior which was nice. The exterior can use some major cleanup but inside was good! Room was good but the frig didn't work.

Nothing special
When we arrived we ended up driving around the whole building bc it’s not clear where the front desk is for the Econo lodge bc the quality inn is also attached. The front desk for both are in the same place. Check inn was fast and easy. The front person was very helpful and pleasant. There was no elevator seen just fyi. Our room was clean. The door Sercuirty could be better it’s a chain lock on top of the dead bolt. It was quite and peaceful. The beds were a little harder than we’re used to. We didn’t eat breakfast there but wanted to get some ice water for our bottles and the breakfast person was not friendly. When asked if they had cold water she said no only hot water. We asked how they fill the dispenser in the lobby she just said we only have hot water. Over all if we didn’t have another option we’d stay again

Overall for the price very nice place to stay. Looks a little sketchy from the outside but it is not at all. Wasn't a 5 star hotel or anything but it was clean, and the staff was very nice. Would definitely stay again.

Very good place for the rate. It was easy to locate and had close dining options. Stairs to the 2nd floor were kind of steep but for me they worked fine.

The hotel was overbooked on Friday night and we were not able to get a room on the second floor. (My wife uses a walker, so getting her upstairs and downstairs was a significant effort.) The room we did get was not great - toilet didn't flush right, amenities were missing, the refrigerator didn't have a freezer, the air conditioner was loud, and everything (food, front desk) were far away. We were able to change to a different room Saturday night, and that room was great - our own door to the parking lot (and a parking space right there), fridge had a freezer, appliances were quiet, and overall it was great.

Better then expected
The staff was very nice. The breakfast was surprisingly stocked and well attended to. Everything was clean. I slept very well. I will be looking into buying similar pillows. Bed was firm though as you’d expect. It is an old hotel and run down. It worked fine for our trip that had us gone a lot :)

We apologize for the road construction in front of the hotel, however it is a city run construction project and it is an inconvenience for everyone. We appreciate your patience while the construction is completed. Thank you for choosing to stay with us!
