Great location and the staff were friendly. The hotel definitely needs updating. The hot water didn’t work in the first room. So we had to change rooms. Then the sink in the second room was clogged up with some black stuff. There was no hairdryer and it took an act of congress to find another. Which ended up being sticky. We stay in this area multiple times a year and will choose a different place next time.
