Very clean but very dated. The room, while clean, had a profound cleaner/antiseptic smell. Everything was operational, but quite old and worn (shower, walls, furniture). The breakfast was really good and the staff was very friendly. The area around the hotel is quite rundown - the neighboring shopping complex is almost completely vacant and there was graffiti on some of the walls.

A pleasant stay!

Clean facilities, super friendly service, nice size rooms, quiet building, convenient part of town, and lovely amenities. Their hot breakfast was especially nice! Unfortunately the pool was under going maintenance while we were there. It was one of the main reasons we picked the place. Still, we would book again!

During my stay, the hotel hosted a party in the hall near the entrance that lasted until midnight on a Friday. I was not informed about this event at check-in. My room was on the first floor close to the hall, so the noise made it impossible to sleep until the party ended. I believe hotels should prioritize guests' rest and enforce quiet hours, which typically begin around 10:00 or 10:30 PM. Allowing loud events to continue late into the night sacrifices guest comfort for profit. Based on this experience, I would not recommend this hotel.
