8/10 Good

Liked: Staff & service, amenities
The staff was very friendly and helpful. The beds and bathrooms were very clean and comfortable. The main floor was currently under repair so first impression were not good. As well as very dirty carpet in our room. They said with the new ownership there just recently there will be nice and improved upgrades coming.

4/10 Poor

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
We had to switch rooms because our heater started to smoke and give off a plastic smell. The pool was closed and apparently has been for sometime due to a water main break. The hotel is in severe need of some renovations and tlc. It appears the hotel has been in this condition for some time.
