General disrepair. AC did not work. Storm door did not latch because someone had broken the sill when opened. Shower water was installed opposite so when you wanted hot water move to the cold side.

Never Again

I will never stay here again. Room was old and worn. The A/C made more noise than the road traffic and to top it off the bathtub was dirty. All for $150 a night.

Mold, No AC, and double charge

This is a great hotel if you like nasty moldy rooms, no AC, and like being double charged. We were told the double charge would be resolved within two weeks, and we are still dealing with it several weeks later. During my visit, the front desk staff seemed apologetic about the awful state of things. They told me that management does not like to fix things, so no improvements are made. If you book this place, do so with VERY low expectations.

Disliked: Amenities

This is a basic hotel without much in the way of extras or luxuries. For example, the free breakfast is uninspiring. However, it is extremely clean and well-maintained. The bed is comfortable, and the shower stall is one of the best layed-out I've seen. Very much a good value for the price.
