The rooms could have been cleaner. The walls, the carpet, the corners in the bathroom were all needing to be wiped down. The staff is pleasant. It’s a nice area- not to hectic or unpleasant

Good value

It was friendly and clean, breakfast was fine. Better than other recent hotels we’ve stayed in. The toilet was a little fussy and there was an icy area outside that needed salted better. I wish they wouldn’t charge $12/day for their own parking lot but could be worse.

Good location, nothing fancy

This is an older hotel, and though it has been renovated it still felt a bit dingy and dated. The location is great and the staff were very courteous. We unfortunately had some noisy patrons on our floor that woke us up at 3 am.
