Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
I was very disappointed with my stay here. The hotel is poorly maintained and lacks basic cleanliness. I saw bugs in the lobby immediately upon arrival. My first room had a broken, water-damaged TV and a bathroom that hadn't been properly cleaned (there were hair and nail clippings left behind). After requesting a room change, the second room was also dirty, I found stray hairs on the bed linens, indicating the bedding had not been properly changed. Additionally, the hallway floors felt structurally unsound; during the snow, I encountered a soft, sunken spot in the corridor that felt like a puddle under the carpet. I would not recommend staying here until serious repairs are made.

Room wasn’t bad for the price, could use some updating but otherwise an affordable place to stay. Close to the airport as well. We did see a small cafe, we did not try it though.
