This COULD BE a great local hotel. It's close to downtown, in a relatively quiet location, with some green space. Unfortunately, the manager is not on site, the room was dirty, the shower did not work, the air conditioner/fan did not seem to work, the grounds are poorly maintained, and I was charged more than I was quoted. Because the manager was not on site, I was not able to get a refund for the difference.

my go-to place in the area

I stay here a couple of times a year. The rooms are always clean and stocked with the necessities expected for a comfortable stay. The people who work here are some of the friendliest folks I have encountered in my travels. This is not a high-end hotel, but is a good value for the money and close to local activities.
