Not bad for one night
Other than having long discussion about my service dog ( no payment for service dogs, they should know that you CANNOT ASK QUESTIONS ABOUT SERVICE DOG - PERIOD ! ), front desk was friendly. Breakfast ? Well, I do like donuts but that was the only thing they offered for breakfast. Not counting cereal :) Otherwise room was clean, smell nice, comfy bed. Water in bathroom sink run rusty so they should check the pipes.

Stayed 1 night and it is fine for that. Any longer and I'd choose the other hotel in town. The rooms are dated. They are clean, but may not feel that way. The TVs are tiny and the remotes not very easy to work. No snacks or drinks at the front desk and the vending machines only take cash. The shower was good. The beds were fine.
