The hotel is old and could use a face lift. Having a hard surface in the rooms is a great touch as it eliminates dirt accumulation and odours in carpet. The staff was very friendly. Breakfast was good and also a nice touch. Would book again!

This hotel met expectations, the hallway’s had a musty old cigarette smell but not overpowering. The only negative. Checkin was a breeze, room was clean and in good repair with a great sized fridge that was cold microwave and coffee maker. We slept past breakfast though which is only offered until 9. This hotel is mostly frequented by workers so that is likely why. As a vacationer it was less than ideal

AVOID THIS HOTEL. Parking lot is dark with people hanging around. The hotel was old and rundown and not like the photos. Elevator and room were musty and smelled of mildew and urine. It seemed more like a weekly or monthly motel. I did not stay and was refused refund.
