Disliked: Amenities
Hotel is a bit rundown, chipped paint, stains. The cleaning solvent was so strong when I walked in the room, what are they hiding? When I first went to my room, the key card didn’t work so I went back to the front desk and the receptionist told me “Oh, some of the handles you have to lift up to use” ummm why didn’t you tell me that before?

Nice stop on a road trip!

The staff was lovely and very accommodating. The room was clean, however there was a t-shirt on the floor of the closet and the closet itself was not tidied. Bir that would not deter me from staying there again.
