8/10 Good
"Check in was quick and easy; staff was welcoming. I was apprehensive after reading some not great reviews, but our stay was fine. I believe our room was recently remodeled; it was clean and comfortable. We had no issues during our two night stay and I would stay here again. It was a budget priced hotel and I have no complaints. Breakfast was minimal but that's not anything I worry about. We didn't utilize the pool so not sure about that. We especially liked having a patio outside our room to sit outside."
