The room was clean and the staff pleasant. The elevator didn’t work, the outlet at the sink didn’t work. But the shower had plenty of hot water and was very clean.

Room I was in too close to walking traffic for my dog. It was near ice machine and direct path to lobby for outside walkway. I did find a place to walk my dog behind the property. Actual room adequate but not quiet. Breakfast in facility dining room was good.

The hotel was very outdated. Didn't feel safe because there were a lot of shady people around the hotel. It wasn't the cleaniest hotel I've ever stsyed in.
