The character of the building is fun. The staff are amazing and accommodating. Even though an older hotel, the condition could be improved. In our opinion, no excuse for the broken a/c’s and fire alarms not being repaired. The smell of mildew in one room was so strong I couldn’t even walk in. It makes it harder on the staff to do their jobs when the owners or managers? do not help improve these things. That includes the bed being broken and absolutely uncomfortable. Again, the staff worked with us and made our stay doable- otherwise we wouldn’t have been able to stay. Please provide upgrades! We would absolutely return, if so. Otherwise, never again, unfortunately.

Checked in for only a few hours and checked back out! Not a very good place to stay. Wasnt ready when we got there and we arrived there at 6pm. (Check in time startwd at 3pm) They had an electrical problem in my room they were srill fixing when we got there. Then there wasnt any toilet paper, no towels, dirty, dirty, dirty!il i felt like if i stepped in the shower i would get some fungus or something. The tile was black from all the dirt and gunk. Then there wasnt any cold wayer to shower. Only hot water. I went ti ask the lady at the desk and she said it was probably because she was doing laudry. And thayvshe was probably going to be doing laubdry all night and the following night also. It was just over all a bad experience. We didnt stay!!!!!

I didn't like the fact that there was hair all over the bathroom sink. A couple spiders as well. I also could not get the AC to work with the remote. I asked for assistance and the caretaker came to my room but she couldn't get it to work. I also couldn't work the TV until she came over and explained what to do. I had no idea you had to push some buttons on the side. I would have never known. I will not be staying here again. It's worth paying more to not have those experiences.

Owners are awesome and personable. Room was clean and quiet. Provided with all the usual hotel stuff. Easily extended our stay at the original room rate. Definitely a dive hotel but worth the stay.
