    clean property
    rude management
    prisoner feeling

    Clean and well-kept property.

    I felt like a prisoner in this hotel. Upon check-in, I was told I couldn't have any guests, not even for a moment. It was incredibly rude and inhospitable, making my stay uncomfortable and frustrating.

    comfortable bed
    friendly staff
    missing bathroom amenities

    comfortable stay with room for improvement

    The comfortable bed made for a restful night, but I felt the decor could use a refreshing update. The staff's friendliness truly stood out during our interactions, making us feel welcomed. Cleanliness was also commendable. the room felt well-maintained and tidy. Additionally, we appreciated having a microwave and mini fridge on hand, which made it convenient for us to store snacks and drinks.

    However, we noticed that the bathroom lacked basic amenities like a plunger, which was inconvenient.

    Decent overnight option with room for improvement

    The king bed was surprisingly comfortable and the room was clean, featuring essential amenities like a microwave and mini fridge. I really appreciated the solid hot water and shower pressure, which made for a nice experience. However, the old chair in the room definitely felt out of place and could use an upgrade. Additionally, the breakfast options were quite limited, which was a bit disappointing.

    The staff were genuinely friendly, which made for a pleasant experience. However, I noticed the bathroom had no plunger, and the refrigerator's freezer section was heavily iced. Still, the room was quiet and offered decent amenities like a microwave and fridge.

    charming atmosphere
    elevator service
    senior accessibility

    The brightly decorated lobby felt inviting, almost like a cheerful quilt made by my grandmother. Its charming atmosphere made the check-in process a breeze and instantly lightened my spirit during my stay.

    Better elevator service for seniors would be appreciated.

    comfortable bed
    clean room
    good shower pressure
    old chair
    thin toiletries

    The room was surprisingly comfy with a king bed, and it was clean too. The wood floors were decent, but that old chair had definitely seen better days. They had a microwave and mini fridge, which was helpful. Hot water and shower pressure were solid, and the AC worked great. Just a heads up though, bring your own toiletries since theirs were kinda thin. It was a decent spot for a quick overnight stay.
