"Very good experience. Welcoming, jovial staff, excellent customer service.
Notably refreshed & remodeled. Very clean, upgraded shower products. Bed was okay, a bit stiff and firm, if that's what you prefer.
Everything well-maintained and in good condition except the king room jetted tub & tile was very aged, cracked, stained (but clean), and needs replacement - so we disappointingly did not use the tub.
Will stay again when revisiting family."
"This place is run down and old. I would not stay here again. I was first put in a room off the alley. I asked to be moved. It appears I was the only one staying there because I saw no other cars."
"The room was pretty clean. There were a couple small stains on one of the white sheets on the bed. The blankets were thin and not very warm. The room was on the small side. The hotel overall was ok. When we got there to check in the woman that came to the desk was friendly. But after that there was never anyone at the front desk whenever we would come and go."
"Big rooms, parking was decent. Check-in was easy. Rooms were clean but a little out dated. TVs are cable & on the smaller side. I brought my projector since I was staying in my room a lot. Would overall stay there again"
