Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Quiet and easy to find however the hotel is in need of some renovations and the toilet did not work properly.
I'm surprised it's a 2. Certainly not luxury, but it was more than I expected .... which was a relief based on the location my state meeting was at my choices were slim.
It was quiet and they offered free breakfast. Staff was very professional.
See to address some issues, maintenance wise with the bottom of the entry doors too close off to keep bugs out.
The hotel has been totally remodeled and updated. Laminate flooring, tile shower, new furniture and TV’s..breakfast was good as well. I don’t think it should be a 2 star.
