This hotel is not the cleanest, but the location is great and the staff were very friendly and helpful! We tried the restaurant that serves breakfast for the hotel for dinner the night before and it was terrible. No flavor to the food and the drinks were below average. We found other restaurants near by that were delicious. If the rooms were really cleaned it would be a wonderful place to stay.
