The best part about this hotel was the staff. They were nice and accommodating. However, the first room we went into smelled overwhelmingly like smoke (they immediately moved us). The downstairs smelled very strongly of a cleaning fluid so much so that I had to hold my breath in the hall. Our second room was beside a loudly clanging door and a room that held dogs that barked every time we left or came to our room and through the night. The phone did not work and you cannot connect your phone/tv services (Netflix/Amazon Prime) to the tv’s in the room. This is a basic hotel. There is no shampoo/body wash, no hair dryer, no iron and there were holes in our sheets. You can borrow some of these things from the front desk if you leave a credit card or ID with them. They did allow us to be reimbursed for the second night which was already paid for and we moved to a different hotel.

2nd visit. Nice rooms. Quite a bit of pet and hallway noise this visit. Putting the room heating/cooling system on constant fan fixed that right up. Will definitely stay here again.
