Overall this hotel is very average. It didn’t feel extremely clean. Our room needed a deep clean. Marks on walls, rust spot in sink etc. staff was pleasant. Breakfast was average.

Beds are comfortable, but the smoking near the doors was the worst. What happened to being 250 ft away from the entrance? That was soooooo unpleasant.

New-er hotel. Friendly staff. My only observations: (1) Not all TV channels worked. (2) Coffee during breakfast was dark tan, not black. Breakfast is basic but nothing special.
