You get what you pay for

Overall it was an okay experience. The room was clean but clearly very outdated. It must have been a nice place 40 years ago. The walls needed paint and the flooring could use a refresh. There was a strong food odor in the entryway and halls but not in the room thankfully. I would not likely choose to stay again but it would do in a pinch.

Our room smelled horrible. I couldn't get that smell out of my nose for days! I sprayed body spray just to try to clear the air. Didn't work. TV didn't work. Asked for new batteries for remote, but that didn't work. Continental breakfast was until 9:30 and food was about gone by 9am. It was a convenient hotel for 1 night, but will never stay there again.
