I had a great stay at this hotel. The room was clean, comfortable, and nicely updated. The staff was friendly and helpful during my entire visit. We had some trouble with the tv tho. I do not know if was only remote or the actual TV. It was hard to change channels.

The key that was given to me didn’t work. It took me several times to get assistance for them to figure out what was wrong. The room was dirty with trash. The restroom was dirty. I was given a dirty room and the staff didn’t do anything about it.

Room security lock was broken, walls were dirty, TV had no signal, and the room floor was not clean. I stayed two nights. There was no sign to say do not disturb because I really didn’t want anyone entering my room. Room was entered (no big deal). The towels were replaced but the bed was not made or cleaned. Just thought this was weird. Price was great.
