The only issue we had was getting service Saturday evening in the bar area. It took an exremely long amont of time for the waitor to notice us and get drink orders. Then it took anout 15-20minutes before he came back for ouur food order. He never followed up on refills or if we neede anything else.

Like stepping back into the 1960s, but not really in a good way. Was a fine place to spend one night, and the price was fair. Bathroom was a bit grimy, paint peeling off the walls, rust on the metal vent covers, small shower. Carpet was worn out and I definitely wasn’t about to walk barefoot on it. Positives were a very, very comfy bed (firm), tons of parking, and a nice breakfast spread that included an omelette station included in your room price. I’d stay here again, but they could definitely spend some money and improve things a bit.

Disappointed!
Lobby looks good but as you enter the hallways you can plainly see that maintenance is very much lacking. Carpets need cleaning or replace, doors and door frames need painting. Our room had a lot of wear and tear. Rusting of fixtures, wall grills, toilet paper holder…etc. rips in wallboard and gouges not fixed. Duct tape to “fix” the shade, old and worn lamp shades. Smoke alarm kept going off. Someone burned popcorn. Hmmm We stayed here 2 years ago and they blamed it on covid. Restaurant was good, great help!! Mattress very comfortable.
