Nice stay but a few updates would make it awesome!
Nice building and location. Staff were very friendly. Room was large and lots of room for our stuff. Updates needed though. The TV is about 20 years old and not anywhere near smart with access to streaming apps. Bed wasn’t great and the mattress needs to be flipped or turned as we both had depressions and I woke up with a sore back. Bathroom was pretty dated too, but clean. Gym was functional but could use a refresh too. There was a fitness poster on the wall from 1985.

Charming hotel
Our hotel room was comfortable. It was low season during our stay and the hotel was near empty which made our stay very quiet and peaceful. The bed was firm and comfortable, but the in-room furnace was quite noisy and ran all the time (no automatic mode where it would shut down when the room was warm enough). The included breakfast was absolutely fantastic with awesome service! Would highly recommend this hotel.

We stayed here for 3 nights in early October. Location selected primarily because of location. We would definitely stay again. Quick drive to downtown. Clean, reasonably quiet (except for the heavy footed person that seemed like they were doing laps above us), reasonably priced, and great staff. We didn’t eat there as we were visiting family.
