A couch in our room is a bit dingy. It could use a good cleaning but other than that it was a nice room.

Not great but convenient

Hotel isn’t the cleanest but more in an old dinged up way. The entire facility could use a strong vacuuming. We were supposed to get free parking, but the lot was full so we had to pay to park at a garage further away. Bed is pretty bad, but we were just needing a place to stay after a concert.

Overall stay was good, breakfast was good, only issue was for parking, parking ramp was full when we arrived late and parking on the street was confusing, We ended up getting a parking ticket because we didn't read the sign correctly ended up paying $30 ticket

Room for improvement.

Our room 512 wasn't clean. There were someone else's sandles that were in the closet, there was strangers hair stuck to the shower walls, the tub wouldn't drain, the toilet seat was loose, then I spotted a chocolate chip along one of the walls in the room. Then the other room had what looked like cat food back in one of the corners. The staff was very friendly and kind the breakfast was well stocked and tasty. Good coffee. We just expected more out of the rooms.

Nice hotel and very friendly staff! The on-site parking, however, is just a few spaces in a public parking garage. It cost $30 for just one night!

The only thing I can say about this terribly old and out of date hotel is that they had a wonderful and helpful staff... which we needed since the elevator broke twice and we needed their help often. The bed and pillows were the worst we have ever the displeasure of using. Every piece of furniture in the room was chipped and older than I am (50). We will not stay there again.
