Clean rooms

Friendly staff. Clean rooms. One wing being remodeled, so materials stacked in hallways in places. Also due to remodel, "breakfast" was granola bars and small packaged muffins. Plan on eating breakfast elsewhere.

Don't stay here still they are done renovating

Very disappointed with the stay here. They said they had a pool and hot tub, both were closed for an extended time and they have not updated their records. Also, they said they serve breakfast - it was packaged tiny muffins or granola bars! I also had a lot of pubic hair in my shower drain and there was a cockroach on my bed when I was leaving.

For 1 night its ok

It was being redone, the pool didn't work, the bed was hard and the lack of pillows was stupid , the were so old and flat , they never should have been used on the bed. My husband and I made 1 pillow with the 4 small very flat ones and it was still pathetic. The air conditioner was very loud we couldn't turn it on. Not to mention the nasty green color in the bathroom and the vent that was so dirty it was gross. No blow dryer , lack of towels and the TV was not adjust right and you had a small picture and it cut half the picture off. We couldnt get it to adjust. I wish I had gotten pictures...

When you see young folks investing in the community support them. That is the case with this hotel. They are in the middle of a quite extensive renovation. That will mean that not everything is perfect and not all amenities are available yet however because the folks running the hotel are kind and hard working they will do right by you. If you need a cheap and safe place to stay this will do just fine.
