It was a good stay. It’s tough with Covid rules in place, but breakfast was disappointing…

Rooms were nice comfortable bed. Parking is a nightmare! Came home from an 80th bday celebration late at night. No parking in the facility was told to park in handicap overnight. We went 3 families 3 rooms in one vehicle. Terrible parking situation!!!

Find somewhere else
The smell in our room was disgusting. I was so tired and just sprayed Lysol but it didn’t do much.

Very clean hotel room
Rooms were very clean and there were actually four towels each for the four people in the room. Most hotels have 2 or 3 sets in the bathroom and you always have to call down to have some more sent up.

Hidden non-descript gem
Loved this place and stayed multiple times. Exterior lends itself to an older unimpressive hotel, though the interior is completely updated. There are a few minor problems with some rooms given age of hotel (one room had problematic toilet, one had carpet squares not completely fixed, one room had lingering smoke smell). However, don't get the wrong impression. These minor issues aside, this hotel offers a comfortable stay with updated interior decor, free parking, and premium satellite tv, that I think make this place ‐ comparatively speaking - a great find for the price.

Couldn’t sleep
They put a family with kids right above us and they were jumping for hours. We couldn’t sleep. They should put people with kids on ground level
