The staff was good and the hotel is nice enough. However they are remodelling so there is some noise associated with that and the unremodeled rooms are a bit worn out and outdated. However it is cheap, clean, and the staff was accommodating.

I did not know they were under renovation, apparently the room I was in this was not the case. I will say the staff as amazing, and I am hopeful the property will get better. But as of right now i would not stay there. Breakfast is nonexistent. They have stopped it. They were the only place that had an opening that night otherwise I would not have stayed. But like i said it will look great once the work is completed. Also, I accidently left my car unlocked all night with belongings in it, and they were still there in the morning. And although we got ate up with fleas, the beds were comfortable.

This is a basic hotel without a lot of fanfare, which I knew when I booked. A little dated with worn carpet and damage to walls. The room and bed were decent and water pressure was good. Staff friendly and accommodating. Some decent restaurants not far from hotel.
