For the cost, it was a great room. My only main complaint was I couldn't close the dark curtains. The room was cool, so I just increased the temperature, and I can't knock on something like that.

There was a huge crack in the window. The shade was stuck in the closed position. The bathroom sink was missing a drain plug. At least the attendant offered us a different room.

Nice hotel with great price.

The hotel staff were very kind and tried to be helpful in any way. The hotel is dated, but very clean & comfortable. The room was clean. The bed was comfortable and everything in the room worked as it should. It is only 4 blocks from the hospital and very convenient.

This is a really nice little hotel. We were just passing through on our way further South. I liked the reviews and cost on Expedia and so I booked it. The friendly front desk woman recommended a great Micro brewery for dinner. The room was nice with a good bed. Breakfast was included. So, beat that ! Steve and Patsy K.

There was some initial confusion at check in, when we were given a room that was still occupied. However the staff was great at switching out our rooms and putting us in another (unoccupied) space. :)

Dated

Hotel is a little dated. Noticed cobwebs on the ceiling, room seemed/smelled a little stuffy. Not terrible, but could use improvement.
