Decent hotel that needs some love
The room was quiet and comfortable. The hotel overall was shabby and not very well maintained. The carpets in the breakfast area needed a good cleaning, there was trash around the front door and finishes generally were peeling or chipped. Our room was clean overall, but there was stuck on paper on the grab bar in the bath.

Very functional and clean. Don’t expect good restaurants or conveniences near by, but it’s clean and with the right room I’m sure not too noisy.
