Clean and quiet. I don’t care for the pump bottles in the shower but that’s a personal preference. Breakfast was good.
Verified review

6/10 Good

The staff was polite when we entered. Room was only lighted by three lamps, one of which was broken. The bed covers were somehow 100 degree when under them, but you froze if you took them off. The room was also slightly dirty with cobwebs and dust in the corners and in the lamps. The bathroom was your typical hotel bathroom, it will do what you need it to. The breakfast was free and included pancakes, sausage, eggs, biscuits and gravy, cereal, and some sweet treats. The hotel itself it just a bit older, nothing to write home about. If you're looking for a quick stop and dont care for the amenities, this place will do fine. If looking for comfort and a relaxing stay, this is not for you.

I wish they would have had some type of fresh fruit with the breakfast. They need to have at least one chair with no wheels for safety. I have arthritis and it was unsafe for for me to use wheels. Room was clean, staff was very nice and helpful.
