Room - good; parking lot - not.
The deluxe room was a clean, spacious room - was great for the four of us. Parking lot and exterior were a little disconcerting as we pulled in, but we had an overall good stay.

Just your average hotel. Nothing stands out. The heat was hard to adjust. It is an older system. Employees were nice. Easy check in. Easy location.

Came to understand after we checked out that the hotel uses some rooms as a half-way house. We were wondering what was up when there was an armed security officer in the lobby at 6 p.m. when we checked in and at 9:30 p.m. when we returned to the hotel.

I don’t want to be too negative. It’s probably about right for the price. Apparently “under new ownership.” It felt slightly sketchy, unkempt, smelly, outdated. The staff was taking smoke breaks outside our window. It’s the type of place you try not to think too much about touching things, carpet, comforter, furniture, etc.
