It is clearly an older property. I did not have high expectations. I was pleasantly surprised! Friendly staff. Comfy bed and bedding. They are doing a good job upgrading where they can.

Noisy barking dog in hotel room
There was a barking dog issue. I contacted front desk at 11 pm and was asked what I wanted them to do about it. Odd question. At checkout I was told it was neighbor’s dog, but as we departed a dog was in a hotel room window barking. Definitely not customer service oriented behaviour from the front desk.

Spacious room with 3 beds was just what we needed. Dining table, microwave and fridge was nice. Front desk guy was great. Convenient parking. Great deal. Don't know if this is just a coincidence but while logged into the hotel wifi (approximately 1 hour) I got about 100 spam emails. Room either needs a new coat of paint or a deep clean and either new carpet or a professional clean. Mattresses were dated. We also had a spider problem in our room.

Horrible experience! The guy at the front desk had a bad attitude, to start with. Horrible location of the room, since I reserved it about a month before hand. When we entered the room…..OMG….bad carpet smell hit us right in the face. Also, there are folks who I believe live there on a full time basis. Anyway CHOOSE another place!! Take my word it’s Nasty!!
