6/10 Good

Here’s the good: breakfast, comfortable beds. Here’s the bad: lights outside of the room short the room all night, walls are thin- could hear snoring in the room next door, decor was not so great- plastic headboards, baths are old, carpet dirty.

8/10 Very good

Staff very nice. Great location! The hotel is older and could use some updating, especially the bathrooms and mattress was not the most comfortable (sagging in the middle). Expensive hotel for the overall quality of the room.
