This stay was great. The room was very clean. The bed was very comfortable. The thermostat was very efficient and easy to use. I would definitely stay at this hotel again.

Staff was friendly, room was clean, slow draining in sink, shower pressure was okay, tv channels unavailable no offer of compensation.
Staff were awesome, helpful and accommodating. The remodel will be an improvement once completed. It’s so fresh and airy.

This is a good value-based hotel that checked all the no-frills boxes. Overall the hotel has been newly renovated on many key parts (carpet, bedding, paint, fixtures, etc). It obviously needs some other upgrades, but it is clear lots of progress has been made. It seems someone or some people are really taking pride in their work and it shows. Worth a look for the comfort value hunter.
Rooms were clean. However staff could rarely be found. Trash overflowed in the lobby and breakfast area. Breakfast was sparse. It was either cereal with only soy milk and yogurt. We stayed two night and was not asked if trash needs to be taken out or given clean towels.
The bed was comfortable and the tv was great. There was no bar soap in the room- only body wash in the shower. No drinking glasses - only styrofoam cups for coffee. And NO COFFEE maker in the room. Breakfast was inadequate - really not a satisfactory property but it wouldn’t make thought or effort to bring it up to an acceptable standard.
Hotel and room was dirty. They had renovations going on but stuff was missing and dirty, and not even wiped down. There were no notices on website and they still rented it though. Staff was nice.
Very nice Staff… Property a little rundown was the only reason I marked down one star. I would stay here again.

The hotel is under construction. We had to be move rooms three times for a two night stay. The water cut out twice and the elevator stopped working on three different occasions; I am in a wheelchair and the elevator issues were by far the most significant issue.
The staff were great and worked well with what they had. This is a facilities-only issue.
