Waffle makers missing. Room had no linens for the fold out bed. There was food residue in that bed when we opened it. We had to make up the bed ourselves because Christopher at the front desk said there were only two people on duty. The shower diverted controls are broken and the main shower head and bathtub filler are unavailable. Overall, not very good.

A few things did not work. Toilet was cracked and repaired. It seemed very strange that they repaird the crack but did not replace toilet. The door entry lock did not work unless you stood in the hall and tried it about 25 times to finally make it work.

Outdated, the customer service is wonderful. The rooms are outdated. The carpet is regular. The stove is old. The microwave is old. No cover, but a let out couch. You have to ask for it. The metrics on the let out couch is old and horrible. The couch is broke. You'd like you're sitting on the floor the TV. Keep buffering when you're watching it too much money, but it's old outdated motel. If you're gotta stay here, go to the Holiday Inn same thing. Save money. But don't forget, the staff is wonderful, really, really nice

The room was clean and pleasant. However, the facility is in need of some repairs. The elevator floor had a very obvious patch, the wall paper in the bathroom was loose, the couch cushion slightly stained, the light bulb over the dining area was burned out and the ice maker didn't work. Maintenance came quickly and fixed the bulb and ice maker (saying we just hadn't turned it on, we had tried, but failed). On the positive side, the room's kitchen was clean & well set up, The hotel staff were very professional, helpful and courteous; kindly lent us an umbrella on a very rainy day; sent us off with bottles of water for our trip home. The buffet breakfast was plentiful & good -- offered many options for different tastes.

Room was nice, sofa-bed very uncomfortable. My friend said she could feel the springs in the mattress. The water in the toilet ran constantly. The food was ok, the lady that worked the weekend was not friendly. The front desk staff were great. Breakfast from 7 -9:30 on weekend and 7-9 during the week too early. Should at least last until 10 on weekends. Overall nice hotel. Parking plentiful and convenient.
