Very pleased and pleasantly surprised with our accommodations. Even though the property was built back in the 1950’s it surly doesn’t show it, a very well kept hotel.

I've been taking my son to the Children's Hospital, and I've been really impressed with the experience. They often have wonderful deals, and the staff truly goes above and beyond. What touched me the most was when we arrived; the first thing one of the staff members asked was how my day was. It really made me feel supported during a challenging time.

This property is in desperate need of updating. My mattress was at least 30 years old. My microwave was broken. Tiles were broken and carpet was dingy and smelled bad.

Very clean comfortable room and the room did not have that strong disinfected odor. The light on the desk just stopped working and the toilet did not refill automatically. I had to open the tank and get it started a number of times.

Good service

We checked in with a very cheerful, helpful, and efficient young lady: a pleasant change from the grumpy, unhelpful, elderly fellow a couple of years ago: he was the reason we stopped coming for a while.

Adequate if you aren't fussy

I have stayed here in the past because its location is convenient and very reasonable priced. But it is a motel and it's old. Rooms are adequate for my needs but nothing close to luxury. Several of the electrical outlets don't work - my devices did not charge overnight. They only have step-in tubs with minimal safety bars. And there are things that need repair - towel bars are missing, for instance, and the broken pieces still remain in the wall. WiFi is reliable. And they leave coffee and snacks in the room but what adult drinks grape juice. But, as I said, it's convenient and economical for me and I'm willing to make the sacrifices for my bare-bones stay.
