Good

It is a very old hotel. You don't find fridge the floor and the chairs are not very clean. The bathroom is not up to the mark. On top of it the parking is not free. Very confusing in the description. I would not recommend for this. If you are staying for more then a day.

I wanted a Queen bed, but received a Full size bed. Garbage was not emptied for 3 days. Used towels were not replaced. Had to go get fresh towels from front desk every night. Parking should be free for hotel guests.

This is a proper motel, not hotel at all. Bathroom shower tub was not draining, no lock on the door. Photos are very misleading, room is extremely small and stuffy
We had a early flight, no shuttle offered even though advertised free shuttle anytime. Room was on 1st floor and easy to get to from inside with key but just as easy to get in though window with out key. Slept with one eye open. No bible🙏🙏
