For the price, the hotel was okay. The hot water was outstanding but the drainage in the shower is terrible. Rooms need updating and the refrigerator would not get cold. We were on the 1st floor and could hear the staff talking and laughing extremely loud. It was early in the morning and we were trying to get some much needed rest. The bed did sleep really well.
