"Good breakfast. Our only issue was the overnight front desk worker who wasn't very friendly. He wasn't rude either. So it is what it is."

"A hotel built in 1959. One of the best stays I’ve ever had. Lady at front desk was outstanding friendly and helpful. Room was well kept and up to date. The shower was fantastic. Pleasant aroma in the rooms and out in the hall. For breakfast homemade cakes and favored coffee. Tea was also available. Will defiantly return someday"
