The staff were super friendly and helpful. The grounds were nice and the room was clean and in good condition. It's not the nicest place I've ever stayed, but it's FAR from the worst. Definitely a great value for a good night's sleep.

Very impressive
I remember this hotel from 40 yrs ago! They did a great upgrade to make it charming and more up to date. I love the tile walls in the bath tub, the "wipe your paws" rugs at the pet friendly rooms and the little pillow with a dog on it. It made us feel welcomed and not feeling like we were given the worst room because we had a pet. The outdoor sitting areas were quaint and inviting. Only 2 negatives were the sirens (being close to a fire station I think) and the continental breakfast was behind the service desk.

Just OK.
Room had roaches, and no way of changing input on TV. Wifi was not good. People were loud outside. Glad I had a short stay because overall was JUST ok and not comfortable.
