Excellent room with a full kitchenette complete with a dishwasher, utensils in the cabinets and drawers, and a disposal! I don’t need any of this for a quick stay over but super impressed! Large room, large bathroom, HUGE bathtub with good water pressure and hot water. No breakfast is served here but there’s a mini stove and full size fridge, this place would be primo for a long stay! Would absolutely stay here again with my little dog. Pet fee $25 and there’s a sidewalk around the building and a dog area in the back—the back area looks like a work in progress/construction-ish right now.

Frankly, we chose it because it only cost $25 to bring the dog. We weren't expecting much, but the wife was very pleased with the room.

There was a hairball stuck to the bathroom floor and dog hair on the top bed spread. The shower was clean enough and the linens looked to be clean besides the bedspread. The linen on the chair had stains and looked to be not cleaned recently. The staff was helpful and friendly when we asked for a late check out, but the building interior and room cleanliness was average at best.

The room was great. Everything was clean. It was nice to have a kitchenette. The amount of channels you received on the TV was awesome. The front desk staff were awesome. I initially had a Wi-Fi issue and they fixed it right away. I come here to visit family twice a year and I will definitely come back here.

The room was clean, well stocked, spacious and it had a mini kitchen to boot. The staff was very friendly. We were able to check in early and that was a plus especially after the drive. The hotel is right in the heart of everything, stores, restaurants etc., all within walking distance.
