Summary of reviews

Guests say
Guests generally praised the hotel's convenient location, comfortable beds, and friendly staff. The breakfast received mixed reviews, with some finding it decent or good. However, there were notable complaints about cleanliness, especially dirty floors and bathrooms, and some dissatisfaction with service, including room availability issues and rude staff. The pool and jacuzzi were also criticized for poor maintenance. Overall, the hotel is suitable for short stays with good value for location and bed comfort but has room for improvement in cleanliness and service.

Pros (+) Reasonably priced, and has everything you need. Not fancy but was clean and comfortable. Big bonus to me is that the pet fee is per stay instead of per day which keeps the costs down.

Pros (+) The breakfast advertised online was continental, so we didn't expect a full hot breakfast which was nice. The beds were comfortable and the room was clean.
Cons (-) The pool heater was broken and the pool was freezing cold. The jacuzzi was warm but when the jets were turned it looked like someone poured soap in it. The TV connection was bad and the reception kept going in and out.

Pros (+) The room was neat and clean as was the bathroom. The location was far enough from downtown so the traffic wasn't a problem. The staff was helpful. I wish I had known there two stories and I would have chosen a room on the ground level.
Cons (-) The tv didn't work and had to be worked on by the staff three times. They were quick and efficient though.
