Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities
Room was clean, bedding was adequate. Hard goods were a hold-over from the previous property name. Aside from the coffee in the room there were no 'real' amenities. Wi-Fi? We were not able to login with the code provided... When the rooms were updated, attention was not paid to sound-proofing for road traffic (and housekeeping carts.) Rated the stay 'good' for the property type and cleanliness. (Some of the reviews prompted one to believe this property was 'wonderful', sadly, I would say that the individual must have limited travel experience.) Interesting note for the traveler on a tight budget: the day before my check-in I received a note from the property indicating they would hold an additional $250 on my credit card, as a deposit. Don't know if this occurred; as it was not noted on the invoice received. However, just a note of interest. Given the proximity to town, etc... we may return, however, there was is little to draw one back to this property. Cheers for the cleanliness; however, would recommend the use of a damp dust mop across the floors; they didn't 'feel' clean.

This older building has been renovated and is clean and comfortable. The louvered shades are an old fashioned touch but they don’t block all the light as well as curtains would. A good value compared to other properties in the neighborhood
