As others have said, the hotel IS a bit dated. However, it's not rundown and it is very clean. Our room was clean and very comfortable. The staff were friendly and polite. The hotel has a hot tub, a sauna a pool and a very nice electric fireplace you can sit in front of and relax. If you have mobility issues, the hot tub won't be accessible since there's a ladder to climb into it, however, the Sauna is accessible and the pool looks accessible as well. There's complimentary tea and coffee and in the morning and also assorted prepackaged muffins, granola bars, and fruit cups. I didn't try the microwave sandwiches, though. All in all it was a VERY nice stay and VERY affordable. I'm definately planning on staying there again.

Met my needs well.

This hotel was perfect for my very short one night stay. It was very close to the airport and quite comfortable. I left too early to have breakfast so I am unable to review that.
