I used to go to this hotel a few years ago and it always felt a bit higher end. Unfortunately, it seems to have gone downhill quite a bit in terms of facility upkeep and customer service. It’s not terrible but it definitely feels less nice than before. I would probably stay here again if the price was right but i would keep my expectations low.

The first room had crickets and so they had to move me to a room on the 2nd floor. The bed was okay. The first floor hallway smelled of cigarette and weed smoke and people would prop open the side doors of the building even though the staff made it very clear that guests could not enter the property from the outside using those doors and we were to only enter via the main entrance. For the price not a place I would recommend staying at when there are nicer hotels for less per night.

The room was clean, the staff terrific, but it would have been a 5 star if breakfast were included. We traveled with friends and staff was fine with us playing cards in the lobby. Very amiable staff and my daughter unexpectedly joined us and they upgraded our room. Thank you!

The room was very nice. They have this courtyard that is completely inside the grounds of the rooms. There is a fire pit out there that people were enjoying. The hotel was very pretty. I guess I didn't read the offerings carefully enough, but there was no breakfast at this hotel.

The lobby seemed clean but desolate and eerily empty. Although the front desk staff was friendly, Breakfast was not avaliable and it was not a welcoming atmosphere. This hotel gave me a homeless shelter-like feel from the look of the other guests and accommodations. Although the bed was comfortable, the room had dirty carpet, stains on the chairs and walls. I reserved one night and that was enough. I will not be going back and will discourage my friends from going. The pictures online are deceiving.
