The room we stayed in was full of stains and it felt very unclean, the attendant was very rude, and the pool was indoors but was not heated so it was incredibly cold.

This property was by far not the worst that I have been to it is dated and could use an update as far as the paint and interior of the room the staff was good and the atmosphere was nice breakfast was hit or miss. I would have no problem staying here again.

Dingy. Old. Not clean. Empty vending machines in the hall. Tub faucet almost pulled out of the wall. When we entered the room it was so hot that we had to open the window, even though it was 11 degrees outside to get some air. The towels were gray/yellow tinged. It was gross

A little getaway to travel for sports
Love the location of this hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable, just a few things looked like that put a bandaid on things that are broken. Something things need to be actually fixed and not patched up. Breakfast was great and the pool was my kids favorite part!

Second time staying here for work. Overall experience was good. Room carpets could be cleaner, especially behind furniture, but the important thing for me was that the bed and the bathroom were clean, and they were perfectly fine. I plan on staying here again.

Fine for a night
The cleanliness was not great, the bed was less than comfortable, and the big nasty centipede looking bug really set the tone. Overall decent, nothing to write home about
