Check-in was easy, staff were friendly. Room was clean and well laid out. Breakfast was amazing! My only issues were that the shower curtain in room 309 had mold in the bottom of it and now of the bath towels was frayed and well worn. Two things that can easily be fixed but would not keep me from coming back.

The breakfast was fantastic! The walls seem to be paper-thin. If you stay here...ask to be on the top floor.....anyone walking over the top of you will sound like a herd of elephants. Rooms could use some refurbishing and some airing out, or some kind of dehumidifier would be great.
