Thumbs up

Room was clean, staff was pleasant. Breakfast was good but items weren’t replenished in a timely manner. I think they may have been understaffed so that’s understandable.

Rooms were clean and comfortable. Breakfast area and lobby dated. For some crazy reason the traffic in and out of the hotel was so heavy. You have to go all around the back of the hotel to get out on the street.
