Need improvement

Breakfast was not good. Coffee maker not working and the coffee that was offered was cold and had coffee grounds in my cup. I hope things improve. I stayed here once before and I had a pleasant stay last year. The front desk is great. Room could have been cleaner. There was dust on the dressers.

All was good.

Hotel was clean and comfortable for my 1 night stay. Check in was easy and the front desk clerk was friendly. Although I usually don`t do continental breakfast I enjoyed the coffee and the selection was nice so I did have a little something. It was a stopover after a late night drive and I would stay here again when driving late en route to a further destination. I also enjoyed the facial soap as it was nice and natural.
