Pretty good!

Very friendly staff. Parking lot was in the middle of being resurfaced so parking was a bit inconvenient. Room was clean, all amenities worked. Although, the walls are a bit thin. Thin enough that I could hear someone snoring in the next room. One thing I’m curious about is the pricing. I decided to extend my stay for another night, and it was only $78. My first two nights cost $237 through hotels.com, so why such a big price difference?

This hotel isn’t new. I was a little concerned when I pulled in. The furniture isn’t new but the room was spotless. There is a full size fridge and toaster as well as a microwave. The shower hat hot water and great pressure. The staff was friendly, kind and accommodating. No matter what they were doing they helped me right away with a gracious manner. It’s my opinion that anyone that gives this hotel a low rating has forgotten what they paid for the room. Very nice. Especially for the price. I will stay here next time I’m in town.

All the parking spots were taken because of the construction! The lobby’s air freshener is over powering and gave me a headache. Our room smells a bit like mildew and stale old smoke. Our bed sheets had hair on them, and stains.. I had to ask the housekeeper to change them. The bathroom floor is gross and has hair that is NOT ours and scattered throughout. There were hairs that were also NOT ours in the shower as well!
