Basic Hotel

Basic hotel that offers a minimal low quality breakfast. Rooms are reasonably sized but overall the hotel is overpriced for what it offers. Even the coffee is bland and watery.

Quiet Stay

Had a quiet stay at this hotel. The person checking us in was awesome, with helpful hints on our stay. Rooms were clean, if not a bit dated. Still, it was a comfortable stay.

8/10 Very good

Rooms were nice, however there isn't an elevator to the second floor. If you don't want to take your luggage up a flight of stairs, you should ask for a room on the first floor.
