It was clean and the staff were helpful. Parking was easy. Need curtain clips as the curtains don't always close all the way. Breakfast was good. Need bottle openers in the rooms. Overall needs were met.

The building itself looks nice, seemingly new paint. The room needs paint, and to be cleaned. It lacks upgrades. Unfortunately I will not be staying there again.

This is a run down property but the staff is nice, the rooms are clean and the beds are soft. It is also an affordable option in this expensive area.
