It's an old place, more a motel than hotel but clean and the rooms were clean, water pressure & temp were good. Breakfast was slightly under par with with most US hotels: omelets, juice drink dispenser, only 2 types of bread (no bagels which was a tiny disappointment). In an area where even bad rooms are expensive, this is a good choice if you don't want to pay too much.
