The room was spotless, and while showing some wear, so were the facilities. Better yet, there was signs everywhere of updating! My only disappointment was that I had indicated that I needed disabled access when I booked the room. The manager expressed their dismay, but since they were fully booked, there was nothing that they could do. Is there anything you can do with your site to pass such information along?

Great for the price

Decent for the price. Service staff were very polite. Appreciated the refridgerator and microwave. Room space was large. Breakfast could be improved with options for eegs and other hot items. Heat registers in our room #107 were rusted and need to be replaced. Also need more lighting in the room.
