Everything about this facility / service was average (at best) Not altogether negative but nothing to write home about or to share with others. A/C was noisy -renovations to bathroom area was sub-par. Breakfast was complete with powdered eggs and little choices of fresh fruit for oats or yogurt.

Very hard to get around the building. Things spilling all over not cleaned up right as you enter side door. Definitely not a good place for people who have a hard time walking around. It was like mountain climbing to get in building

Only stayed for one night but was a good stay overall. The towel holder by the bathroom sink was basically falling off the wall. Our room was non-smoking, but we could somehow smell cigarette smoke in the bathroom. It's almost like it was coming through the vent. Besides those 2 things, no complaints for a 1 night stay.

The rooms were large and breakfast good. The room and hotel as a whole needs some attention. The room smelled poorly when we walked in because the AC had been off a while and the room could have been cleaner and a few things updated.

The gentleman at the front desk was very helpful. We had booked a room but last minute decided to come a day earlier and they were able to accommodate us with a great room and price.
