Liked: Staff & service
The hotel definitely feels a bit dated. The hallways were warm and seemed like there was no air conditioning running. Our room’s AC wasn’t on when we arrived, so it was uncomfortably hot—especially with temperatures outside over 100 degrees. It really would’ve made a difference if the room had been cooled ahead of time. The towels felt old and rough, and while the beds were decent, the couch was not clean. It had visible stains, and it was clear it hadn’t been properly cleaned. The cushions were flipped to hide the stains, but since we used the pull-out sofa, we saw everything. The carpet also felt slightly sticky, which didn’t add to the comfort. Breakfast was just okay. The eggs were pretty bad, the sausage looked and tasted rubbery, and the syrup for the pancakes was watered down. Overall, it was an okay stay, but we wouldn’t choose to come back. There are definitely better options out there for the price.

A nice stay.

Very clean, Friendly. Exhaust fan in bathroom did not work. Soap dispenser should be on wall where even short people can reach it. Also shower floor slippery especially when using soap. But all in all, a nice stay.

Good mid-range place to stay.

Generally it's a nice mid-range place to stay. I have stayed here several times for business. The pool has never been open in the many times I've stayed here. It's unfortunate since it would be nice to be able to swim during my stays. The staff is friendly and helpful.
