Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
It was mostly clean but the bathroom could use a scrub. Also hair was wrapped around chair legs and stuck on shower tiles. The free coffee is at the front desk. Not enough electrical outlets for charging but its an old hotel so its understandable. I'd stay there again, as a secondary choice. Staff was nice.

Was looking for an affordable hotel for one night. For the money, I paid, it exceeded my expectations. The place is an old motor inn. It’s had minimal updates, but it is very clean. It’s a 3-star accommodation so you don’t get all the fluff. However you do get clean, safe, quiet rooms with comfortable beds. I rated it excellent because it exceeded my expectations at the price point I was willing to pay. Also the staff is nice.
