Liked: Staff & service, amenities
Disliked: Cleanliness
“The beds at the hotel were comfortable, and the staff at the front desk was very friendly and welcoming. However, the cleanliness of the room was disappointing. There was noticeable dust on the hairdryer in the bathroom and on top of the TV, which also appeared to have streaks, as if it had been sprayed but not wiped properly. While the exterior of the hotel looks well-maintained and inviting, the interior feels quite dated and could definitely use some remodeling. With a few improvements, this place could be much more enjoyable for guests.”

The staff was very friendly and helpful, the property was very clean and the location was convenient. The property was a little dated. I’m not sure of the safety of the area, though the parking lot was well lit. It is in a busy shopping district so there are lot of people passing through the area.

The smell of the hallways and room cannot be tolerated. The smell burns your nose and throat. Is it the cleaners they use? Plus the bathtub has [in 2 different rooms] RUST around the drain.

I like that they served a breakfast in the morning, then served popcorn and cookies in the evening. That was a nice touch. The only thing I didn’t like was that the moisture level in our room was too high. You could smell a slight musty smell and the moisture causing different metals in the room to rust. I assume they know it’s a problem because there was a damp-rid in the closet. Overall a pleasant stay
