The computer system was down when I arrived but they still put me in a room and called when the system was back up so we could complete the check-in. It's an older hotel and the price reflects what it is. But it was clean and the staff was great so I would definitely go back.

Good parking. Good price. Outdated. Dead bugs. Breakfast was a hostess Danish and the person at the front desk was incredibly rude. Wouldn't get off the phone to check us in, and refused to follow ADA laws for service animals.

The room was disgusting. Mold, rust, dead bugs, and cob webs in the room. Thankfully the gentleman at the counter was kind and understood my concerns and gave me a full refund. This place needs to be updated and they need better cleaning staff.
