Great hotel near lots of food and stores close in needed. Laundry mat next door to hotel so easy washing for travelers. Staff is top notch. Rooms are clean and serviced but not the Ritz - so don’t expect that. Simple, clean and affordable.

It felt like a safe room, though when we walked in it smelled heavily of cigarettes. Also, there was a diaper under one of the beds. It was a little gross but not the worst hotel I've ever stayed at for the price it was. The staff were very sweet and nice, helped with where to go for food and events happening. Free coffee in the lobby :)
