Glad we came

Desk clerk was exceptionally friendly and helpful. We were impressed with the attention to detail in the rooms furnishings to maximize comfort. We were in town for a funeral and this was just the kind of hospitality that we needed. We'll remember this place very positively.

Wasn’t expecting much given the location and price. It was mediocre. Walls are paper thin. Was able to hear conversations and other activities…. in room next to ours. That wasn’t that bad the worst part was the brown water coming out of shower and sink. Do not plan to shower or brush teeth here.

Freezing room during cold weather.

The heat was not working. The room was freezing. After I notified the office, I was given an electric heater and a blanket. The heater did not warm the room. It was freezing the entire night.
