Everything was pretty good. My only complaint is that we had a few ants in the bathroom. I didn't complain about it because they were only in the bathroom. Otherwise, it was a great stay.

The tub did not drain well. 6” of water while trying to shower. The building is not kept up. Outside was fine. Will never recommend or stay at this hotel again.

This was a super convenient hotel near the venue we needed to attend and the staff was very helpful and friendly. However, the facility is very old and the in bad shape. The door handle fell off immediately after walking into the room and there was a strong/heavy mildew smell w/a lot of humidity in the hotel overall. I have stayed at some nice Comfort Inn's but this one wasn't one of the nicer ones.
