This place is old. Probably nice back in the day, but it needs to be gutted. Full beds are tiny and not for 2 adults. Terrible sleep. There was a larger balcony area off our room. The sliding door was coming off track and it had been painted shut at one point because the paint is stuck to door. Yet they market this space. Staff was very nice. Just need to start over and remodel

Confortable beds, there was a smell in the room, old carpet, or pets friendly room, or old dust. Just a bit of everything! Needs a little update. Staff was really nice.

A fine place to stay
We had a wedding reception here 15 years ago. The wall paper and other superficial things have been updated but the overall hotel feels dated. Small rooms and small bathroom. Probably many other better options for the price.

This was such a bad experience! The ceiling in our bathroom was falling inside the room. We had bugs (moths/gnats, etc.) flying around in our room. The beds were very uncomfortable and the pillows were lumpy and flat. When we asked if we could our room credited, they said they could not do that since we booked through Expedia.
