Breakfast menu could include hot food, and probably not impacting costs. Gym could have some weights to bring more choices to the customers. Carpet on halway had stains and dark spots. Excellent service, very kind staff, with the culture of supporting the guests.

What we liked about this hotel was the price! What we didn’t like was how rundown this place was! The carpets looked like they needed a good cleaning or just throwing away! Also the elevator button did not work on the 5th floor so we had to walk down to the forth to access the elevator. The 5th floor smelled like it was the smoking friendly floor, once we got to our room things got better,nice and cool and a comfy bed. The staff was really good, in addition the continental breakfast was convenient and had enough options to keep us happy.

The hotel was clean and staff were friendly. Friday night parking was not available had to park along the building not leaving much room for other cars to move. The elevator was sketchy, we were on the 5th floor. We could ride all the way to floor but going down you had to walk to 4th floor to go down, not fun with luggage and bad ankle. The king size bed was sunken in the middle so we got to cuddle all night. Not the best sleep. But in the hot weather the ac was awesome and one of the best shower pressures in a hotel we have had.
