The room we got stunk like cigarettes. We notified the front desk and were immediately given a perfect room. If you ignore the bad room I would give this hotel 5 stars. The place looked and felt like new which was really nice. We would definitely stay here again.

Halls and rooms are Old and worn out. Carpet in halls need replaced badly. My rooms exterior wall was damaged from water and the room smelled like smelly feet. Most likely from water damage. The bed was comfortable and the room was as clean as it could be. The place needs renovated in the rooms. No bedbugs so that’s a plus. All Staff was very friendly and bar staff was very accommodating and on top of serving. No continental breakfast.
