The ice bucket leaked overnight all over the dresser. There was only one facecloth. The clock alarm went off at around 1 am and I could not easily turn it off…. Could not fall back asleep.

Overall good but the shower needs some fixing. It's so old and looks dirty because of it, can help but think it's dirty. I had to put plastic bags on my feet because I couldn't get over how dirty the shower looks.

This is anice property very convenient to the highway. Staff are very helpful. Breakfast was good with waffles, fruit, yogurts and toast. Coffee was very good. The property is two stories without an elevator so request main floor if you have mobility issues. Would stay here again

My Top Sheets of both of my Queen Beds were dirty and frayed. The Breakfast Lady in the morning did not change the overflowing garbage can in the breakfast area. Nor did she clean the waffle maker or tables that desperately needed it.

Room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Unfortunately we were on the lower floor of a two story building and could hear the people walking about above us. Our toilet didnt flush very well and I alerted the front desk when we checked out. Breakfast was OK,
