Probably your average hotel. The man at the front desk was very nice and helpful. I didn't realize it when I booked the room, but the pool and hot tub are basically in the middle of a huge conference room, so anyone either attending an event, or even just trying to find their room, the ice machine, etc. is walking past and it's kind of awkward. The elevator I used was rickety, and after using it, I understood why people were taking the stairs The room itself was clean for the most part. The exception was the air vent in the bathroom that caught my eye due to the amount of dust that was in it. The TV was crooked, but that didn't bother me because while I had turned it on to drown out my neighbor's conversation that was clearly coming through the air vent nearest the entry door, I was only watching it on and off while scrolling on my laptop. Thankfully, they didn't stay up late, so when I turned it off to go to bed, I couldn't hear them anymore. I did sleep well and liked the pillows. The hotel seemed safe. It did have a different layout than hotels I've been to before, so it took me longer to find my room, and the ice machine, than it usually does, but overall a good experience.

I wasn’t sure what to expect having passed the property many times but, had never stayed there. Overall, it is an old, rundown exterior. Our room, however, was very clean and comfortable. We were visiting on a busy weekend so really only needed someplace clean and convenient to sleep and shower. This hotel checked all the boxes!

Front desk and breakfast staff were friendly and great! The outside of the building was dilapidated. Ceilings above the walkways falling apart and cobbed to keep it from getting worse. An outdoor walk way and stairway were actually closed. The inside stairwell was filthy and dilapidated. The pool wasn't clean and could see dirt at the bottom. If you could get passed all that, the room itself was okay. Appeared newly worked on or renovated, but, surfaces were dusty. My wife found hair on the coffee cup lids on the desk. The walls were paper thin to thr point where we heard a mother and fathers entire video chat with their young child word for word. I asked my wife "should we say 'hi' too?". This was more like a roadside motel than a hotel. Absolutely NOT worth the price paid.

Slightly Disappointed
Rooms seem to lack updating and need maintenance. Door key would not work upon check in. Tub/toilet room is in need of complete renovation. Fixtures, lighting, ceiling in need of repairs/replacing. Some housekeeping items were missed like filth/dust on the floors, empty toilet tissue rolls. Rooms slated as 2 “queen sized” beds. Beds were more along the lines of full sized. If management and maintenance items were addressed this hotel has a ton of potential.
