Very aged premises. Half the outlets worked. The bed was stiff as a board, and the pillows flat. And there were a lot of damaged floorboards. However the staff was amazing. They let us check in 2 hrs early and check out 4 hrs late. They waived one day of pet fees. You're also are right near the stores and restaurants.

Linda

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff was consistently very nice and helped with additional towels/questions that I had. I will say that the room was fairly run down. It was just me staying, so it wasn't that big of a deal, but new flooring, paint around the trim and possibly something to cover the fence/make a better view would go a long way. It is a budget hotel, rooms are small and there is no seating, just the bed, so just know that in advance.

The heater did not work. A service person came to fix it but brought us a space heater instead. It got us through. The refrigerator freezer, clanged and banged the whole time. The water in the shower wasn’t hot but doable. It was history and a place to lay our heads after our excursions
