The staff were amazing and super nice throughout our stay. Breakfast was good it was your standard hotel breakfast. Rooms were not good from the dirty floor to the peeling ceiling and mold. It worked for this trip but I wouldn’t stay there again.

This place gets an 8.8 on Expedia. I don't understand how it gets this type of rating. It wasn't bad but doesn't deserve this type of rating. This is equal to a BW. 7 is realistic.
