Still one of the best values in Carbondale. It's not fancy. The staff make up for any negatives. I appreciated in particular two young people, one man and one woman, who opened the breakfast area just a little early so I could get about my business

The room was clean, but damaged shower covered a leak with a plastic cup. Breakfast was very poor. Not much of a selection. As we were leaving, I wanted to fill my water cup. When I tried, the water didn't work. When I pointed it out to staff, they said that they turned it off at 9 am. It was 9 am.

It was just a sub-par hotel. The shower head had a leak that sprayed all over and it took 2 days to get someone to fix it. The breakfast offering were meager and I had to tell them on 2 occasions that they’d run out. The coffee was bad. The room was clean but just old and dreary. There was no stopper in the sink so you could lose items down the sink if you weren’t careful. The toilet had a seat but no lid. Just sub-par.
