Hotel is very dated, at check in the guest before us so had their information up on an iPad so it’s not very secure for privacy. Our room was not very clean, there were two very scratchy robes available for us to use but they were totally wrinkled and very stiff feeling. Rust stains and the bathroom drain was out of the tub. Set the thermostat to heat but the heat never came on and it was a very chilly night. Bed was okay decently comfortable. But I would not stay here again. Oh and also our room door stayed wide open, you had to physically close it and ensure it latches before walking away.
Door wide open, have to force it to close.

Staff were efficient and friendly. Breakfast had large variety of food choices, though hot foods were lukewarm. Breakfast area was roomy with ample seating for guests. Hotel was nicely decorated for Halloween - fun! Our room could use a more thorough vacuuming. Our room door was squeaky. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would do so again.

This whole hotel needs to be updated as it is very outdated. We had an issue with our room and staff did change our room immediately. So staff and service are great and the area is convenient. The price is also good. But I probably wouldn’t say again due to the dated condition.
