The property is older, but fairly well maintained. However, the bathroom fan was banging against the edge so you would hear a constant clang clang clang when it was on. The water flow in the bathroom sink was ridiculously low and made it very difficult to try to clean up. Also, there was never any cups in the room, making it tough to brush your teeth or take pills. There was a strong smell of Curry throughout the lobby and the hallways from the lobby. There is also no breakfast at the facility. For the little bit of money I save staying here, it was offset by the need to go and purchase a light breakfast elsewhere.

Very clean & quiet. Advertised "free continental breakfast", but no food or coffee available either morning. Made a reservation for one room, two nights. When we checked in, they said they had two reservations for two nights each & could not cancel one since they were made through a 3rd party site & we would be charged for both rooms. Expedia had no record of the second reservation.

First when we arrived the desk clerk was asleep on the couch in the lobby. Next I asked about the pool that was listed when I booked and she said it was closed for the winter…it was an indoor pool and it was October 4. Then when we got up in the morning for the continental Breakfast that was advertised there was nothing and the clerk was asleep again on the couch. I hope someone will make this right or shut that place down.

I was not too fond of the fact that there was an old throw-up stain on the carpet and blood splatter on the wall as if someone had been shot up in the room. The fridge and microwave weren't plugged up and working, the tub drain was slow to drain (clogged). The bedding was old and torn in some areas.
