We enjoyed our stay, the staff is kind and inviting. Although over the years they have made tremendous improvement overall to the property and rooms, they need to attend to the details. I suggest the room service staff be trained in housekeeping/hospitality cleaning. Again it's the details that matter and will bring this hotel to the next level.

That hotel was a kind of shock for us. I have to admit that room was clean and comfortable, but it is a small roadside motel, rather than hotel, in a very unattractive area. No amenities at all. Room’s window faced a wall. Other rooms face a loud and busy street, so we were actually lucky. It was OK for us to spend a night on our road trip, but definitely do not recommend.
