What I appreciated the most was a kind, caring staff. The room was ok but not top of the line. I had a warm bed, hot bath, fairly good sleep and the staff made a big difference to me in how kind and helpful they were.

Only good thing about the stay was the water pressure in the shower. Room was disgusting, whole place smells awful, and there was roaches on the walls. Would give 0 stars if I could.

Breakfast closes at 8:30. And they didn’t tell me what the hours were when I checked in and when I did get coffee early, there was very little set out for breakfast. The room was fine. Front desk wasn’t friendly.
