Clean and Comfortable

Clean and comfortable with everything you need for a stay. Only issue was that the restaurant and bar were there but not open. Except the restaurant was open for breakfast. Would have been nice to have the bar open to watch the game.

I loved the old style decor, the rugs in our room smelled like smoke and aircondoeas blowing black sooty dirt out on the bed. The two men at check in were rude, especially when we drove around 30 min for parking. None to be found and I had surgery the next morning and needed to rest. They offered no help said there was nothing they could do

Only reason to stay here is proximity to Thompson's point for shows. Facilities are dated, and no perks other thank in site parking. This place should cost half what they charge a night but options are limited so they get away with it.
