Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This hotel was very dirty. Missing pieces of the baseboards. Outlets coming out of the wall, wired exposed from outlets as well as mold going on baseboards and chipped tub. Yellow shower from built up on shower mat. Very dirty and unsafe to stay in. A waste of hard earned money.

We arrived a bit early but were allowed to check-in early. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The hotel is a little older but priced accordingly. The location was very convenient. We would definitely stay here again!

Decent value for price paid. Definitely an older property and the bedspread was stained. But otherwise, pretty good bang for your buck.

Bed was comfortable, and I was just looking to sleep so I was fine . I used my sleeping bag because when I pulled back the spread something hard hit the floor...didn't want to investigate. Didn't use shower it was a very deep tub and no rail . There was a back door to the room leading to a cluttered patio area in back ....it was unlocked and partially opened when I arrived. There were 2 queen beds and one was covered with rain gutter materials. I brought it to the attention of the desk and he did offer to move them . I said no problem because I only needed one bed . It was just weird. I did appreciate the late check in . I was glad to find a place at all on a holiday weekend and Valentine's day . Won't stay here again... Oh ...no coffee anywhere ..

Shabby and needing updating but cheap. Missing chain on the second door lock (deadbolt works tho), tub porcelain needs to be refinished or replaced, bathroom doorknob falls off. Staff are very nice and doing their best in this somewhat limited place.
