Room was clean and manager was nice but a drugged woman came in off the street at breakfast, started to hassle us and the manager simply ignored the situation. I won't stay there again.

Staff were pleasant and generally helpful - but this hotel has seen better days. My sheets etc. were clean but there was a lot of long dark hair in the shower and occasionally on the towels (may have been picked up off the counter but I have very short and light hair). Bathtub mat definitely needed to be replaced and made me worry about nail fungus. Honestly I don’t want this to be a mean review but I was really put off by the superficial fixes and general sense of a lack of cleanliness (to be clear, it’s cleanliness beyond what a staff person can do in a shift. The place needs a full refurbishment if it’s to get business travellers). The staff I encountered were helpful and pleasant, and the bed itself was comfortable and clean. I travel a lot and always do a bedbug check (even high end places) and there was no evidence that it had any issues.

Waffles, coffee and water. Thats breakfast. The rooms were clean but was very damp and musky. You hear everything outside your room and the rooms next to you. I didnt feel safe staying here. Parking is extremely limited. First come fist serve. Probably around 10 spots. Definitely not what i expected.
