The staff were very friendly and courteous. We arrived rather late at night and did not call to give them a heads up. They were apologetic for giving us a smaller room than normal but it was our fault and not theirs.They make you feel at home. It is a nice hotel

James

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
First the room we reserved was not available because the carpets were being cleaned so we were moved from a premium room to a tiny little room that you could barely turn around in. The room was not cleaned, trash emptied or towel changed for three days and only then after we complained. The owner offered mulitple excuses none were valud. We had stayed there before but trust me we won't stay there again.
