It smelled of cigarettes, and it was noisy due to all the motorcycles having a party in the back. They did leave by 10 pm. The breakfast was good, and the room was clean and tidy...I left tips for the room cleaners and the breakfast staff.

This budget hotel is subpar even for a budget hotel. It was poorly kept. Our room had such an eye and nose burning smell of cleaning products it felt like a health hazard, and our eyes burned the whole next day. It was dingy with very low ceilings. The walls were thin, and the TV was really old (no Netflix ect). The staff was friendly, but We won’t be back.

I would stay here again.

The room was very clean. The bed was comfortable, not to hard and not to soft. It was quiet. The breakfast was adequate & service was good and friendly. The hotel is being renovated & we were on the side that is not finished yet so we had no vending machine on our side. I didn’t like that the closest way to breakfast from building E was across the courtyard into the next building. I suggest they don’t put senior citizens that far from the lobby.

Loved my stay

My stay was very pleasant. The staff was amazing. The rooms were very clean though it seemed to be an older property. The grounds were clean. The breakfast was plentiful. I will definitely book there again. It was close to everything.

Felt dirty, poor service.

We had to wait for someone to come to the front desk for probably 10 minutes, there were 7 people in the lobby waiting. No apology when they arrived to the desk that they had us waiting. The room was not clean, there was hair in the bathroom & the floor felt unclean. The whole hotel felt sketchy/dirty. The breakfast was very lacking. Will not stay here again.

Very nice facility, good breakfast. Worst part of stay was trying to take a shower with no water coming out of the sprayer. At the desk, they said it was a common problem. If a common problem, why don't they fix it by replacing the sprayers?

The staff was lovely. The breakfast buffet was surprisingly good. The furnishings were nice and the flooring in the room was nice. The smells were bad! Heavy perfume in the lobby, mothballs in the hall and fish, yep, fish in my room. Popcorn walls, dark halls, no elevator, bad hall carpet and my room was dirty. Old AC unit and a window "locked" only by an ill fitting bar bracing it. Too bad cz some things were nice

Person at front desk was friendly and helpful. Room was clean. Bed was fine. Nothing fancy to see here and it probably needs some updates, but overall it was good for our 1 night stay. Would stay again
