For the price it was ok. Beds were clean. However we checked in with 4 adults 1 child in a suite with 3 beds, 2 had linens, there was only 2 towels. Luckily we had beach towels and extra blankets for the child. Front desk was very friendly and breakfast was on par with other hotels. 1 night we could be ok.

When every other hotel gouged their rates for the graduation in town, they stayed decent on their rate. Always a reliable location to stay when we visit family. Close to everything. Even with the trains behind the hotel it’s quiet.

I booked this hotel because it has a pool and that was really important to our family. I arrived to find the pool was permanently closed. The room was clean but it smelled bad.

Paula

The room was dirty, and had not been cleaned since the last occupant at the advertised check-in time of 3:00. The curtain and air conditioner had mildew or mold on them. The sheets weren’t tucked in tight and had yellow stains under the pillows, making us wonder if they had been changed at all. Also, the room smelled of bug spray. We did not end up staying there, although the manager and staff were very nice anddid offer us a different room.

Room was ok, but not cleaned well. It had a lingering smell that you might expect in a grandparents home. The shower had rust and was not used during our stay. Overall decent if you need it for a night, but wouldn’t recommend for a longer stay given the price.

Bring your housekeeping skills.

Wasn’t advised that I’d have to ask them to dump my trash or clean my room on the weekend. Had to request clean towels.No safe in room. Had to sign so many disclaimers that I asked about thefts. Room was comfortable and clean at check in. Staff were pleasant.
