I checked in with manager Candy and trainee Gigi who were very friendly and did their best to give me a great room for my stay. Room was very clean and quiet. Bed was comfortable. All was great until the alarm clock blasted me unexpectedly at 5:45 am. Someone left an alarm bomb for me….. it took a while to calm myself after that…. Awoke on my own at 7. Breakfast was included and …. meh. The hotel is old and tired but the rooms are large and comfy. It’s close to relatives that I visit. Its location trumps all the other minor drawbacks.

Meh! It's a hotel
Meh! Just like many of the reviews, Door lock didn't work properly, and coffee and eggs required at least a half hour to be restocked.

Our room just reeked of febreze and had a lot of spiders crawling on the walls. The hotel in general was not in great condition. I would not stay there again.

Would definitely stay here again!
We stayed 3 nights. Comfortable beds and great breakfast. It is an older hotel going through some renovations but our room was quiet and staff was very accommodating. We would definitely stay here again.

POSITIVE:
Staff was courteous.
Breakfast was good with different options each day.
Property was well maintained.
NEGATIVE
Potential theft. I left a bracelet on the nightstand before I left the room for the severalhours. When I returned to my room that evening it was gone. I searched the entire room, including under and behind the beds and other furniture. However, the bracelet was not there.
When I reported it to the front desk staff, they only searched their lost and found envelope, and told me that it was not there. I was very disappointed that never considered that a member of their staff could have stolen it and offered to investigate.
