The hotel is dated in some areas and could use some modernization. Breakfast was a plus and had a good selection. The last night I had to call the front desk for a barking dog next door. The were able to handle the situation. Overall I had a good stay and would return.

I will definitely return, the rooms are very clean and have very important things such as coffee, refrigerator, microwave, glasses, etc. What I loved the most is the bathroom soaps there are enough such as shampoo, conditioner and soap. So 10/10
