Good bang for your buck

We were there for the weekend. The room was clean, soacious and comfortable. Breakfast was included, hot oatmeal, make your own, eggs, sausage, juice. You may have to go down to get your own extra linen as there was only 1 front desk person. He was very courteous and professional. Its a good value for the money. I would stay again

Do not stay here

Rating said the place was clean. It was not clean at all (rip in sofa, blinds deteriorating, fruit cup and peanut crumbs under sofa) Paid over $250 a night. The only good thing about this hotel was the girl at the front desk. She was such a sweat heart

The reviews have this hotel 9/10. As 3-star hotels go, I’d give it 2/10. (My daughter suggested the review meant 9/10ths of one star.) It’s certainly no bargain. The front desk couldn’t issue room keys and had to let each guest into their rooms one-by-one using a master key card. I was never provided a room key. By default they add a $3/day charge just because they provide a room safe. If you don’t use the safe you have to ask the clerk to remove it from your bill. Who charges guests for a room safe? Check the picture of the bed in this “fresh” room before I touched it and tell me this is an exceptional hotel.

Checkin was great, room was good. Breakfast was not so great. Food was cold, and no fresh food would be put out even an hour before breakfast ended.
