Adequate hotel. Not many choices

Exterior looks abandoned. Unlit sign. Easy to miss at night. Interior clean but dated. 1990's. Desk staff friendly and helpful.

This is the absolute worst hotel I’ve ever seen. I wouldn’t have my dog stay there. It’s close to being unfit for human habitation. Totally disgusting place.

Beds were ok, bathroom needs updating

Stayed here while family was in town, occupying our home. Check-in went smoothly without issue. Beds we're adequate, but bathroom wasn't as clean as I would have liked, as there were a few hairs around the sink, and a stain in the sink that I was able to remove myself with soap and water. The fixtures in the bathroom we're getting old as well. Since we were there only to sleep, I can say that it was a pleasant stay, nothing too spectacular, but also nothing outstanding. Good, quiet, relatively comfortable stay. For the amount spent, I feel it was a good stay.

Tired.

Went to check in, they did not have my reservation, but since they were not busy, accomidated us. No housekeeping 3 of 4 days of our stay. Sink was clogged, toilet needed work...this used to be a nice hotel. Now, it's a tired place that needs a lot of updates...and a few more staff members.

So disappointing

The owner, Bob, was very nice. He welcomed us to the hotel and bar. My grilled cheese was good. The problem is this place needs an overhaul! The tubs looked like they threw acid on it toilets were mildewed. It didn’t feel stable to stand in it. Cleanliness is not a priority.
