Good for the money

owneri believe puts genuine care into what he does. That said, the area isn't very good which means unsavory characters. I had one guy try to enter my vehicle while I was in it! One complaint I read about was small towels, and that's very true.

Good place to spend the night

Not the place you wanna stay at if you gonna stay a few days. There is no WiFi it’s just a place to sleep if you need to rest for the night. Owner was friendly. Felt safe going to sleep there and the bed was comfortable

Would someone please enlighten me as to why this property gets such excellent reviews on Expedia? It’s old & shabby & the front desk people weren’t particularly friendly - had to conduct business thru a window while standing in the cold wind. Room is adequate but also old & shabby - only thing modern about it is the door lock. Plugs in room are all loose & likely a fire hazard. Haven’t used shower yet, so don’t know about hot water availability, but towels are thin. Not impressed & I’m now worried about the next couple bookings I’ve made based on Expedia reviews!

Great and affordable stay!

What a great experience! My family and I stayed here for an affordable hotel to stay while vending at a 3 day festival downtown. This was the perfect choice! The gentleman that runs the hotel stayed up for our very late check in and was very courteous and friendly. Room was clean and comfortable, no frills, but just what we needed. Felt safe and the place was quiet at night. Excellent service!! Would definitely stay here again!!
