The hotel advertises a heated pool. No it is not. I checked in with my luggage and was told that my room was # 202. I asked ok, where is the elevator. No elevator. They expected me to drag my luggage up 2 flights of stairs. I was given a handicap room. Luckly I was not in a wheelchair. No handicap access to shower. No ice machines in building, but yet an ice bucket in room and vending machines were broken too.Stay away!

Clean the mirrors!

After i showered i noticed there was writing on the mirror. Like someone wrote on it with their finger when it was steamed up. So clearly it was not cleaned from the last stay! The bathroom door was so hard to close and open. It could definitely use some fixing up and I've never been to a Hotel that didn't have an elevator. But it smelled clean and overall the rest was clean.

Good hotel for the price; No Elevator

Overall the hotel is good for the price. There was no elevator on property and our room was on the second floor. The breakfast was rather disappointing; options provided were cereal, bagels/donuts, waffles and yogurt. The juice dispensing machine was off (or broken...not sure) so there were bottles of juice that we could pour from. Breakfast really did lack an overall protein and so we were hungry within just a mere couple of hours.

Wouldn’t stay again

Staff was friendly, but the rest of our stay was not great. One member of our party got locked in the bathroom and the straw had to come assist, they did not fix the handle, so we had to leave the bathroom door slightly ajar for the remainder of the stay. The shower/tub did not drain. The laminate flooring was very cold to walk on The walls had been painted at some point but there was overspray on light fixtures Lampshades had stains and tears Sink drain and counter was stained, toilet bowl had stains as well. Would choose a different place if in the area again.

Comfortable

Just a one night stay getaway. Very nice hotel. Rooms nice, bed was comfy but the pillows were not that comfy. You could hear the upstairs guests walking and their tv. I like the fact that the floors are not carpeted!! Did not go to the continental breakfast as we had other plans. Just know there is no hot tub. Would definitely stay again!
