The side door to the building (the emergency exit on the first floor) was always open so anyone from the outside could get in the building. I closed it more than once. The staff were great and friendly. Exercise area was great. Really appreciated the building was smoke free.

Rooms were what you would expect for the price, but regardless of the price the floors shouldn’t leave your socks and feet black. Also the pool really didn’t seem very clean. But for an overnight stay it served its purpose. Breakfast was nice, with a good selection.
