Had an extended visit here as result of work - cannot recommend. See below: 1) Room cards consistently went out. So did the door mechanism in general. Minor inconvenience. 2) Placed a”Do Not Disturb” card on door. Still had maids knock asking for room cleaning consistently. Part of the issue may be that they don’t speak a lick of English. Major inconvenience. 3) Management is poor. It’s a small establishment - specifically requested manager to ensure I was not disturbed. Did not happen. Observed him sitting outside on phone. Asked to speak to owner/higher management. Stated that hotel ownership is “in process of transition”. Facilities are clean. But there are a ton of hotel options. Cannot recommend.

Is always affordable and cleaner than most at that price range. Hallway is extremely hot on the way to the room. Carpet is badly outdated and in need of deep cleaning and or repair. The breakfast is very basic and could use a few more hot items bit over all good.

At least the bed was comfortable!

Arrived late and ready for bed. First walked in and main light wouldn't work. Discovered entire outlet wasn't working. Next room was stuffy, found the Heat was turned on instead of AC. Then went to bathroom and the pocket door wouldn't shut due to being entirely off the track. Had to physically lift it up to kinda close it. Thankfully, bed was comfy! Got up the next AM and the shower door wasn't working. Told the front desk, nothing written down, guessing it won't get fixed.
