While the WiFi didn't work immediately, a phone number for assistance was provided in the room and within 5 minutes a live person (off-site) was able to get my connection working. I was positively impressed. The price is fair and I would stay here again.

Will not go back

We were there for a college visit. The sheets had holes in them. One bed had hair in the sheets. The bathroom tiles were coming apart/ my daughter did not feel very safe. Luckily we were there for a very short time. We will not go back.

They lock their doors so if you’re checking in late you are waiting for someone to come unlock the doors for you to check in. Right next to a bar with loud music.

Good value & nice location

The hotel was clean and appealing. It is close to downtown, within walking distance. The room was also nice. The heating system in the room wasn’t the best. The temperature was hard to control and the unit was blowing the air directly across the 2nd queen bed in the room. We had to use pillows to block the air so we could sleep.

This hotel was absolutely terrible. The parking lot was icy as hell. The tv in the room did not function and we had no hot water for showers and the sink. The floor in the bathroom felt like you were going to drop right through it. I will be contacting the BBB ( Better Business Bureau) to file a formal complaint.
