The staff couldn’t have been nicer! Courteous and caring. The room was immaculate with all necessary amenities. Somewhat dated but not shabby. Very close to town. Parking was ample and right outside my door! I attended a concert at the Kate and did not want to drive an hour home late that evening, so this was perfect for me. Much more reasonable than the other places in the area. Depends on what you’re looking for. Won’t hesitate to come back again!
The room was spotless, spacious and unique. Staff was very friendly and efficient. Amenities are what you need.

Outside of hotel looks really nice, but beware! Room was extremely outdated. Furniture looked like it came from the free page on Facebook marketplace. Bathtub floor was cracked, carpeting was gross. On the positive side the staff was nice and polite

Disliked: Amenities
Comfortable bed, good price. Hot water was not plentiful.
The room was very clean with soft towels. The sheets were clean but a bit rougher than I'm used to (I like silky sheets, not rough cotton) but the bed was comfortable and warm. The staff is very friendly too. A nice "basic" room that took care of our needs, didn't gross me out with smell or dirt and was located in a good area for food.

The bed linens were clean, but seemed old, especially the pillows. The mattress was very hard and uncomfortable. The furniture was older. The chair cushions were stained. The bathroom tub had a crack in yhe plastic that seemed to have already been sealed previously.
Very old and in very poor condition. Whole place is run down and dirty. Needs a complete renovation. Pictures and description online must be for another hotel.

It was ok for a one night stay but it’s very dated & drafty. There was a large gap on top of the door leading to the outside. It was clean but not immaculate.
