"Would come back again"

Very clean. Great breakfasts. Courteous staff.

Karen O. (Individual traveler, booked 1 room)

Verified Review, stayed from Mon Oct 20 to Mon Oct 27 2025 at a $81.49 average nightly rate.

"Could of been better."

The tub drain did not work. The bathroom needs an exhaust fan. If you want to put make up on or do your hair after your shower you better plan on waiting about 20 minutes to let the mirrors clear. No ice bucket in the room. The clerk checking us in, was not very personable. Spoke very low. I had to keep saying “pardon me”. On the good side, the beds weren't too bad.
