Overall, it was a good stay. The room was clean and the staff was friendly. It’s a bare-bones setup, so don’t expect many amenities. My biggest issue was having a front-facing room where opening the curtains meant looking straight out onto the public hallway. A sheer curtain would’ve helped with privacy while still letting light in. The WiFi was spotty and unstable as well

The ownership was accommodating and helpful. They ran a good business.
By looking at the property you would think it’s just okay of a place, nothing fancy but the first time I stayed here because of the cost, very reasonable$$$. The rooms are renovated, super nice inside, very clean and the beds are very comfortable!! I really like the place a lot, the hotel staff are always so friendly so now i always stay here on a regular basis:):)
Check in was quick and the gentleman was super friendly. Budget friendly place and the rooms are clean. I only needed a room to sleep while attending a 4-day sports event. Will stay there again.
At the price point I would expect more. Room clean and basic, WiFi didn’t work, breakfast not much. The desk clerk was friendly and helpful. Well located
Clean hotel very conveniently located to everything. Decent breakfast. Our room didn't have a blow dryer for hair but front desk gave us one upon request. A carry-over from Covid days. Overall, a good value.

Meh
Front desk clerk was more interested in the television than me when checking in. Breakfast was laughable. Stayed at another hotel night before, paid less and got an an amazing breakfast. Staff much friendlier

Staff was super friendly!! Room was relatively clean, but looks like cleaning people didn’t vacuum or clean bathroom floor. Pool wasn’t open yet☹️

The breakfast was not much to write home too. Muffins, yogurt, two types of cereal, coffee, orange juice, apple juice. Had a toaster, but nothing to put in it like a bagel or an English muffin. The check-in was nice with the lady being very friendly, did take a little longer than I thought should’ve. For the price you can’t fit it. We just need a place to sleep and take off early. I would recommend it.
Room was nice and clean,beds use flat sheet instead of fitted sheet but that's not really a problem.Room is only serviced every 3 days so we went to the office and got towels and toilet paper when needed.TV worked fine and fridge was cold and good hot water so it was fine for what we needed for 3 nights.
