With some of these reviews I think there is a misunderstanding of what a two star rated hotel is. This hotel is in need of an update, but it is clean and the staff is friendly. As a note for parents of youth athletes staying here, the continental breakfast is pretty bad, with no protein options outside of hard boiled eggs. You will be better off going to the diner across the street.

The fam and I were in town for a few days visiting relatives for Thanksgiving. The room and facilities are clean and comfortable. The staff are all very friendly, helpful, and attentive. Plenty of parking and everything you need nearby. We will definitely stay here again if we are in the area again.
