The stay was ok. Was in area to visit friends. The parking lot now plowed 4 days after storm. The hotel is dated. The apartment style room is very convenient, but only the bedroom has heat and tv. Would stay again.

I arrived a couple days after a major blizzard. The kind gent at the desk told me to be careful as I walked over the foot high hump of Icey snow to get to the dry walk way. Two people in front of me slipped and fell on the hump which could have been easily removed.
