The room was clean, staff friendly, good location. My only complaints are: the smoke detector in the hallway constantly chirped because of low batteries and the exhaust fan in our room's bathroom was horrendously noisy and sounded like it was on its last leg.

Goon value for the money. The staff were very a tentative and polite. The property is a bit rough on the fine stuff and the breakfast could definitely use some additions. It does meet the definition of a continental breakfast but is not a crowd pleaser.

This hotel was nicely located for walking downtown and to restaurants. The only disappointment was my room had a shower but no bath tub (I didn't ask to see if I could change that)
