I liked the overall stay. But one of the vending machines wasn’t working and when I looked for help, no one was at the desk. Also a lot of people standing around outside smoking when I pulled up. It was a little uncomfortable. The shower was great though and it had what I needed for the two nights I was there

The hotel is clean and we'll maintained. It seems to be near everything. The only issue was that he dump truck and trailer parked sideways blocking 9 of the best parking spots in the rear lot for our whole stay, my wife is disabled and the walk was somewhat of a issue for us. The breakfast is not great with few options but fine considering the price.

We enjoyed the quietness of the hotel and the easy access to shopping. A pool was listed as an amenity. We did not see a pool or any signs of a pool. There also is no elevator. We were on a long road trip. Carryig a lot of items up several flights of stairs was hard.

The reception staff was very friendly and welcoming. However, the room had a strong musty smell, there were several long hairs on the tile floor, and there were visible stains on the sheets and pillowcases. The stain on the sheet was about three inches long and one inch wide and had a brownish color. The microwave handle and buttons were also sticky. On the plus side, I checked under and behind the mattress and found no evidence of bed bugs, but in the process I saw that clearly nobody had cleaned back there for a long time. Unlike the rest of the room, the bathroom was relatively clean. The sinks and lights were all working fine.
