The staff very nice, the hotel ok. Mold on ceiling in hallway… one major leak plastic tarp and tubes. No fan in bathroom so when u shower everything gets moist. Beds comfortable. Outside side doors are open access. No key needed… not great for safety

We had a very good stay. The room was big and clean, the beds were very comfortable, and we had plenty of towels. The hotel could use a little updating. The area the hotel is in seems a little neglected and unattractive which didn't matter to us as we had plans with family elsewhere. We made our reservation through Expedia so it cost $200. That was a little high.

Nice enough

The Hotel is a bit dated but rather fascinating, particularly the dining area with attached sunken bar! The outdoor pool was not heated so not good, the indoor pool was tiny and also not useable during our stay. The breakfast was good, and the staff were all over the top kind and friendly. Beds were comfy enough, and bathroom was clean.

The only concern is that the ceiling had leaks and pieces of it were falling onto the carpet in the hallway. People who served in the hotel were very nice.

I was disappointed in the breakfast choices, in the past I always enjoyed the breakfast choices. This time there was only a Continental choice, apparently due to small bookings, I would have liked being informed prior to our stay.
