OK

Room was nice, very spacious, towels were rough. The room was very noisy, I asked for a quieter room, but attendant said that was the only handicap room available. Seems a shame that hotels only seem to reserve handicap rooms in noisy areas.

Won't stay again

We traveled through from MD. The hotel is in a convenient location. The room was nice. Hotel had a nice bar and restaurant. Prices were good. Staff was ok. I have complaints and will not stay again. The hotel had a very strong odor. Smelled strong of Glad products. Rust in the bathroom. Staff and hotel owner talked to much of their personal business while we were trying to relax in the restaurant area. We ran out of toilet paper in the night. It was ridiculous.
