Good location, a bit noisy.

Room was in good condition. Lots of noise from neighboring room doors slamming people on the 2nd floor dropping things. For the price, it was a good deal. If you are a light sleeper or need a full nights rest, bring ear plugs. Location was convenient to area points of interest. Staff members were friendly and helpful.

Okay, not great.

Clean rooms, but needed a few minor repairs and couldn't find a way to watch NBC, ABC, CBS. Slow and dull but adequate help at the desk. Surprise $15 parking fee that I didn't see mentioned when I signed up. The typical hotel bs these days. Location is a little far from historical downtown, so you need to pay again for parking there.

Conveniently located near the historical district, but not in the middle of it. So it was quiet and peaceful. Breakfast was great my first morning. The cheese omelette was delicious and fresh waffles with great toppings, second day was scrambled eggs. I’m not a big fan of the instant eggs, but these were good. Seasoned potatoes another waffle. My only complaint will have to be that there’s very little parking, but I was allowed to park right in front of the main entrance so it still worked out. my room look freshly renovated not sure if it was, but it looked very modern, clean and bright.
