Good stay for the price.

Older hotel that could use some renovations however housekeeping and maintenance have done an amazing job keeping it very nice. In the middle Of downtown and parking is terrible. Comfortable bed, hot shower hotel is creaky and you can hear people walking in the halls. I just turned on the fan for white noise.

the room was super nice for a decent price the check out was a hassle. I used a debit card to prepay for the room and they demanded a security deposit as well. ok i gave them a $300 security deposit and now i am having troubles getting my deposit back, mainly because the man who checked us out didnt know his business
