The location was great!! Pther than that, the hotel was pretty average. The room was a good size and nice. The problem we experienced was a loud trash truck would come at 730 every morning and the TV has streaming options on it but there was no streaming was available. The only staff i dealt with wad Lolita on the phone and she was helpful.

Very nice off site manager Katie came over to help us on a couple items. Nice property. Very large room and nice bathroom. Park under the hotel so don't be looking around for a parking lot. Driveway takes you down and you park. Elevator with a luggage cart is down there and you can easily get things up to your room. We would stay here again. Dog friendly too, but we don't have a dog.

We didn’t realize we were on a Main Street until the night traffic thus effecting our sleep. We also noticed the vents were very dusty & looked like they had not been cleaned or changed in a long time. We think that may have caused some of our sneezing & congestion. The bed was very comfortable & the room was clean. The other items we had problems with were: the bathroom lights were difficult to figure out, the air conditioner blew right into the bed so we had to turn it off to try & sleep since it was hitting us directly. Other than those concerns the room was nicely decorated, clean & in a central location.
Vent at entrance of room.
