We like the hotel. The room is very comfortable and spacious. Nice and clean. Even though it was not for handicap person, it was comfortable enough to accommodate a person who needs space for a wheelchair. We would like to return to this hotel in our next trip.

Our stay was great! The room was big clean and quiet. We particularly enjoyed the color scheme, not your average still hotel colors. My only advice is to note the bed sizes. Most hotels offer rooms with two queen size beds, in this hotel the beds are twin size.

Tired property.

Pleasant stay, but you can tell they had a limited budget when they updated the property. Cracks in the walls, torn drapes, feels like they spent all their budget on the common areas and skimped on the rooms.

Everything was great except the shower drain didn't drain very well and we were standing in water after the shower. I told the very nice lady at the desk and she thanked me very much. She said that most people don't say anything. Other than that the stay was great and the people were excellent.
