It was a good stay at a very convenient location. Their "dog and cat friendly" policy put some bothersome stains on the carpet in our room that we reported upon our arrival.

The hotel tried to give us a doubles room when we booked a king, but rectified the problem when we expressed our disappointment. The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was clean but very dated and worn.

The owners are in process of making nice upgrades. Welcoming staff and decent breakfast. We stayed in one of the exterior entrance rooms, which I think are geared more towards people with pets. Even these rooms had some new things: vanity top, huge TV, bedspreads, nice pillows and new door mats (with tags still attached). However, the curtains and tub/shower combo left a little to be desired. It appeared the curtain backing is being chewed full of holes by moth larvae. Still, would return in the future.
