The AC sounded like a lawn mower engine. The bed was okay, no bugs at least. Staff were nice. Pool was okay. Good budget option if you just need a cheap place to stay.

An older hotel. Free breakfast was toast, bagels or cereal. The pool was out of service which was one of the main reasons for booking that room.

Staff was responsive to our concerns and we appreciated their willingness to help. My understanding is that hotel is under new ownership and/or management and in the midst of repairs.

I picked this place because it advertised an amazing pool, hot tub and center park with grills and tables. The pool had been closed for months, no full breakfast meal during the week and the toilet in my room didn’t work. The place looks great and has an amazing idea just needs to take better care and not lie on-line. Cheers! B

Some pretty scummy people hanging out in and around the place. Exterior doors weren't locked, pool out of service and key cards didn't work. I think there are people who live there long term.
