Nice and clean. The only complaint I have is the pots and pans were not clean and they were odd pieces. No baking sheets. Had I known I would have brought my own along with dish soap. It worked out as we spent only needed one night. For the price I really can't complain. I will come back.

Good price value for the area.
This hotel has been around since I was a little girl. It has had mid cost updates and for the price is a very good deal. I gave a medium rating to the service, only because I was told I could move to a room with a balcony the next morning. I inquired the next morning, and they told me to check back. So, at check-out time I asked again and was told they had rooms but I couldn't move.
