Convenient place. A bit of a disagreement on my side that need to pay extra as a disabled patron to stay in the first level since they are now newly renovated rooms. They’re real nice but still shouldn’t be more expensive especially since they’re needed in first level for ADA Reasons.

The hotel has old bedsheets and old towels. I was disappointed that the channels on TV had easy access to pornography channels, and I don't think that is ok at all. NOT OK!!!!!

Overall, efficient hard workers. Cleaning done well most of the time but there was a sewer-like smell each time we entered or Trent eres the room. For travelers from abroad, they Definitely need to know to have national currency handy to pay for hotel stay!! Overall, the basic needs of the traveler are met. Comfortable bed to sleep in!
