The room was ok, outdated. TV good, had mini frig/microwave. Tub/shower, no safety bars. Toilet low and small. All functional. Bed was comfortable. Staff was fine. What does one expect for $90?

Doing a check in behind bulletproof glass is a bit disconcerting. However, staff were very polite and helpful. Building is dated but very clean.

my go-to place in the area

I stay here a couple of times a year. The rooms are always clean and stocked with the necessities expected for a comfortable stay. The people who work here are some of the friendliest folks I have encountered in my travels. This is not a high-end hotel, but is a good value for the money and close to local activities.
