Ok - fit the bill for the price

Stayed for a half marathon in town. Convenient location. Not the nicest place, but fit the bill. Bathroom was tiny. A/C didn’t cool as much as we wanted even set to 66. Other than that it was ok.

This is a very dated property, the stock pictures do not show this. It was loud due to thin walls. Bedding was creepy and old, thin blankets, would recommend bringing your own. The bathroom counters had gunk on them which we had to clean off when we arrived. The front desk person was very nice, but when I called to find out about a $30 charge on my credit card they put me on a 10 + minute hold and hung up on me when I tried calling back. Had to call BW customer service to find out what the charge was. Never received an email receipt so very frustrating that I had to spend time on this. The charge for parking seemed silly as it is a small, aging hotel with a crusty parking lot. Did not use the pool as it was not heated. Would not stay here again.

Staff was nice but facility is run down. Sewage stopped up and backed up into the tub. Flooded some rooms and the hall in front of my room. Was also in the parking lot. We were already leaving that day but it was the worst thing I’ve seen at a hotel. They have been bought out and will undergo a huge remodel and rebranding. They is definitely needed.
