The room itself was very nice and clean. The pool has been closed from the health department. Which was a huge bummer because it rained and we were unable to do our scheduled plans which is why I chose this hotel as a back up plan.

The price was right. The room was clean. There were a few things that could be better: The elevator became noisy, there was some broken glass in the window next to the elevator on the 5th floor, and the light in the bathroom would not stay on but rather blinked, but you get what you pay for. I would return.

Hotel was okay. Seemed a little run down. Area did not seem to be the best. Staff were friendly. Needed to sign waiver about utilizing the pool but didn’t seem to be in working condition. We spent the night while passing through town on a road trip. It met our needs for a clean bed and a shower
