Staff were very friendly. The hotel was newly renovated but you could still tell that it was an older hotel. It was mostly clean. The beds and the bedding were very comfortable. The coffee was good. Parking was fine at least ut was free unlike some of the other hotels in town! We enjoyed our stay.
Great stay nothing to complain about. Great staff very accommodating. If i needed anything they were happy to help!

Good for the price
I read through all the reviews prior to booking. Here is my take: Pros: price is good for quality, location was great, the beds were very comfortable, the coffee on Saturday morning was good, and the staff was friendly/helpful. Cons: our bedding was damp, both rooms smelled like cigarettes and mildew, and the room felt humid/clammy. It was a good stay for a night.
Awesome stay for the price point. Whatever science they put into choosing the bed, bedding, and pillows, they need to teach all other hotels. Moat comfortable stay we had our entire trip.
