Not terrible
TV didnt work I called the front desk no one ever answered. The shower had severe hard water stains, beyond reasonable. It was affordable, the area was quiet and the bed was soft. So good and iffy..

The room was good sized and gave us space to move around. I appreciated the extra plugs for devices. The beds were not very comfortable. The room had a musty and smoke smell. Even though it was a non smoking room. Every time the bed shifted a certain way there are rods sticking out that we would trip over or bump out legs into There was no dirty laundry bag. The key to the door did not work every time. The outside door that had a code did not work with a the code each time. It was finicky. We had use alt door several times. It was noisy with neighbors slamming their doors most hours.

Not the best hotel….
This hotel is an older hotel. Our room was ok. It looked as if it had been recently remodeled. The bed was very uncomfortable. The room was ok, but the overall cleanliness of the hotel wasn’t the best. The lady at check in wasn’t friendly. We came the weekend before Thanksgiving, and we chose this hotel because it was one of the few left and the price was decent. We will not be staying here again, and I would not recommend this place to anyone. Our friend that went and stayed in the room down the hall from us broke out in a rash after the first night there. The hotel smelled terrible and the scent lingered down the halls, it was awful. Spend a little bit more money and stay somewhere else, you’ll be glad you did. There is not an iron or ironing board in the room, you have to call the front desk to get that. We didn’t eat the complimentary breakfast there, but when we went to check out, the smell of the food would run you out it was so bad.

The hallways & stairwells- need to be swept & mopped or steam cleaned. The ad needs to say no elevators. Should have at least one comfort chair in each room not counting the high barstools at the tall table in the room. Very uncomfortable.

When we arrived at the property and checked in we were directed to our room. Once we got in the room we noticed the the fire alarm kept chirping. When we called the front desk about it we were told to take the battery out. We ended up in a different room. The room was had some fruit snacks smooshed in the carpet, and the toilet wasn’t flushed. However, the beds were very comfortable and we all slept great

Honestly we felt kinda let down at the fact that when we went down for breakfast at 730 there was little more than eggs and waffles. Sausage was all gone and bread for toast was hard. The floor in our bathroom looked awful grout in the tile and sealent around the tub was beginning to turn black and our sink looked like someone had been rinsing paint brushes out in it.
