This is a newer hotel that is not being maintained very well. The room was not clean. There were crumbs on the nightstand and the floors had not been mopped. Staff was friendly. I was glad I was only staying one night.

We didn't stay for breakfast. The lady at the front desk was amazing. The first room she put us in wasn't clean yet so she upgraded us. The room was nice but smelled like old oil.
