Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Check-in was easy and fast, as well as parking. Upon entering the room, there was a bit of a musty smell. I think the property is just a little old and there's not much that can be done about that except maybe some air freshening. The bed was comfortable, but there was considerable traffic noise because my room faced a very busy intersection and was quite close to it. The one thing that I REALLY didn't like was that there were copies of the ultra-conservative Epoch Times in the lobby. I will not stay there again if that newspaper is distributed. It's not produced by well-trained journalists and spews a lot of disinformation.

Great stay
I booked this room so I could stay in town before the athhalf, and it was everything I hoped for- very close, extremely comfy bed, allowed me to check out at noon. I did book through a third-party site, and that may be why this happened, but I wasn't aware that there was a $12 parking fee. Other than that extremely minor thing, it was perfect. I'd asked for a room on the top floor and away from the road, and they gave me exactly what I'd asked. I'd definitely stay again and recommend it to travelers

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
It was hard to find, but the staff helped us find our way there. There was no microwave or fridge in the room. Breakfast had to be bought at their cafe. And it was very expensive. The room was nothing special except for a few interesting furniture items. There was no TV guide. Had to walk over to the lobby to ask. These may be smalI things but you would have thought, for the price, you would have gotten more. We have stayed at much cheaper hotels and gotten so much more. We will never stay there again.

Decent, no frills place. Looks like a converted Holiday Inn motel, and it’s fine. I like the lobby/coffee bar. Gym is in desperate need of updating.

The bathroom was very dirty and the floors were dirty. The doors looked like they had never been wiped off. The shower was pretty disgusting as well. We had to wear socks to keep our feet from getting black from dirt.
