We had a quiet stay. The staff was helpful, and the breakfast each morning provided convenience and variety. The outdoor pool was not operational, but the website did advise that it was "seasonal".

We slept comfortably

The beds were comfortable and the room was clean. The area around the hotel was a bit rough with a homeless person sleeping in front of the hotel, but I appreciated the gated parking

The staff was friendly but front desk assigned me to two different rooms which hadn’t been cleaned by room service yet. We were finally able to get a room on our third attempt and after all the walking back and forth with our grocery bags and belongings. Manager did not charge us for the upgraded room due to the inconvenience so that was a plus. The surrounding area has some homeless and probably the kind of environment that you definitely not want to walk around especially at night. The room was clean and came equipped with a fridge, microwave and free WiFi with free parking available as well. Overall we weren’t expecting some five star hotel but just clocking off of work tired and just needing a place to shower and put our feet up, this hotel was sufficient enough to do so and reasonably priced.

This motel is well maintained for an older property. The best parts were the friendly staff and the hot, full breakfast! The worst parts were the 'too soft' bed and the part of downtown you would not want to go for a morning walk.

This hotel everything I needed as a solo male traveler. It had a frig, a microwave, free gated parking, decent internet, an outside pool and a free breakfast at a really low rate. After all the taxes and surcharges I think I only paid $95 so it was very affordable. The location is not great as it’s maybe a mile from the busier parts of downtown and yes I did see some homeless people in the area but it worked well for me.
