The room was clean, nice bedsheets, not a bad mattress. Breakfast was good, parking was readily available; shower was amazingly hot. Hotel's staff was very courteous and nice. The only downside is that hotel itself is quiet old, so if you don't have super high expectations, you'll like it there

Clever room layout is designed to maximize space. The private balcony in particular is a treat, offering fresh breezes and lovely views. The rooms as well as the entire hotel interior are attractively decorated. Everything (ice machine, elevator, etc.) is easy to find. There are ample complimentary breakfast options. Staff is friendly and helpful.

We really loved it, we came on a motorcycle trip. It was so safe and we had a great time. It was clean, well maintained, and the breakfast wasn’t bad. The service was great. The front desk person, Andy, was very helpful. We’re coming back for my birthday in may. Can’t wait!!
