"Everything was fine. The property could use some renovations, but my stay was nice. The king sized bed was really nice and the lobby was nice. Also, the elevator sounded like it was one use away from breaking down."
"The hotel was great starting with the staff being accommodating and having a good attitude. The breakfast was good, just needed more fruit and possibly a salad option for those who do not eat meat. Lastly, the room was great! The bath tub needed the no slip markers to prevent accidents. Thank you for a great stay! Dr. Anderson"
