"Hallways and elevator were disgusting. Customer service was great. While rooms were mostly updated, some of the work done was far from good. Breafast was decent. I had to ask for bedding for the sleeper sofa but bedding was brought up to room quickly."

"My stay was for a brief visit in the area for the July 4th holiday. My stay has been great at the hotel considering the price that I pay which is quite reasonable.
