The staff was friendly but the building is older and could use some work. Our tv did not work and we were given a new remote and it still did not work. Beds were clean and comfortable.

Fine but really low toilet
Toilet was weirdly low! Like a squatty potty! Perfect for little kids but uncomfortable for the 6' 2" husband.
The hotel needs some updates. There were paint drips on the sink and floor. The beds were soft and clean and the breakfast staff was exceptional!
