We liked sitting in the lobby but would have liked the provision of water, coffee and tea in the lobby. To get to the breakfast area we had to take a flight of stairs which was difficult for us due to mobility issues. It was nice to have a restaurant in the hotel. The room was clean and 2 beds made it more comfortable. The toilet hit the wall behind it when you got up. Weird. The tub did not drain well at all.

Price per night is too high for this hotel. It is old and has mold on the ceiling of the bathroom. The staff try their best to keep it clean and are very friendly but at this price you expect more from the property.

The property is very dated with many holes in the walls and the facets leak non stop. Very old air conditioners that cannot keep the room cool enough and very loud and such. Staff are super friendly.

Amenities room was nice and clean. The room was also clean upon check in. Front desk staff were also attentive. The only downside to our stay is that our van got broken into and some personal items were taken and some were left outside the parking lot just on the ground. Unfortunately we don't feel secure enough to come back to this specific location due to what happened to our property.
