The staff were very friendly! Breakfast was okay, nothing extravagant but works for how much you spend for the night. There could be some remodeling done to the building (noticed some cracks underneath doors, no shelves for personal items in the shower, etc.) but besides that my night was fine 👍

Room was very clean. The TV wouldn't work in the first room so the moved us but it ended up being a smaller room. So the moved again a the size of room we originally had. They were very attentive and willing to make things right. My only complaint is the breakfast. The hot food was cold and the selection was lacking we ended up going to Chickfila every morning.

The entire hotel smells old and musty. If you could improve that it would help. There were no shelves in the showers to put my shampoo, conditioner, soap, razor. Etc. Everything had to be put On the floor of the shower which is inconvenient.
