They are in the process of rehabbing the hotel so I'm sure the part of the ceiling that was peeling in our room will be repaired. The staff was very nice and breakfast was good.

Rooms very clean, comfortable. Breakfast food was good. The only complaint, and a minimal complaint, was the juice machine wasn’t kept filled. When the lady did change the apple juice bags, we still only got water to come out. Also the trash was overflowing. We felt a little more observation from the attendant would have been helpful.
