Very basic and dated hotel. Condition of the building definitely needs some serious attention. Hotel staff however were very nice and accommodating to any requests we may have had. The first photo is of the kitchenette on Expedia. The second is what we found in our first room. The staff moved us to another room (which was amazing of them) but it still was no where near what is in the photo online.

The hotel itself is somewhat dated but has had some up dating. The room was quiet, clean, comfortable, has been updated and had some nice amenities. The included breakfast was better than average. The only con was the air conditioner was quite noisy.
