Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
I really sensed the hard work and pride these guys put into the place. There were just a lot of little things you don't always expect in an inexpensive hotel, like table and chairs next to the bed, the shampoo and soaps, and the included breakfast.

There is nothing wrong with this hotel, it's run down a bit and in a town that seems to be suffering from post covid. It was right downtown and was walkable to where we had dinner which was nice.
