This hotel always meet my accommodations and needs for the price. Not a tweeker drug hotel but a good, safe, peace and quiet place to rest. Rooms on the street side can get a little noisy. Staff is polite. Wish they had more than coffee in the morning with more creamers and tea but that’s too petty to complain. I always stay here when in town.

Sweet Dream Stay

AC was great! Very clean room. Very quiet and restful. Only unpleasant situation was the manager- unfriendly, rude and possibly racist.

Area is safe and quiet. Not too far from dining. I had a bad room that smelled like smoke even though it was non smoking room. Other than that, I’m always mostly satisfied with my regular stays here. Always a pleasure.
