It smelled extremely musty in our room. I am sure it was due to the hotel tub in the room.

The property overall was dirty and tired. I stayed here probably 30 years ago when I was in college, and it looks like it hasn't been updated since. The beds were comfortable, but the condition of the carpet was filthy, and the bathrooms had mold in spots in the shower. The staff was very friendly.

This was one of the best places we've stayed in this price range. Very clean, even though you could tell the carpet and pull out couch were a bit faded and carpet had a few stains, but it smelled nice .You could tell it was an older hotel that got a nice facelift.Bed was very comfortable, sheets fresh and clean. Air conditioner was working well and not super loud. Breakfast was awesome, so many choices, hot and cold. Super easy check in and out. Definitely would stay again.

Property was well maintained and seemed newly renovated. Room was clean and everything worked. Could have used more power outlets for phone charging. Breakfast was good. Pool and spa were closed. Housekeeping was nice and thorough. Front desk staff was unhelpful and disinterested in doing anything which is pretty typical of this age group.

Booked in advace 6 months ago. When we arrived the pool and spa was closed. On a Saturday night, a fully booked Hotel. What a disappointment. We specifically booked that hotel in accordance to our travel schedule. A nice swim/spa after a long travel week. This is why we booked so far in advance. This hotel chain is really missing the mark as of late and getting worse year after year, disappointment after disappointment. Slowly degrading every aspect of quality and comfort over the years. Sadly i will be moving on to a different chain.
