"The staff was super helpful and friendly, right from the start! The hotel is not the newest or fanciest, but everything was clean and well maintained in the room. Lights, remote, a/c, toilet, hot water all worked as it should. It would be a great upgrade to put USB charging ports in the light bases, in addition to the outlet ports. I really appreciate that the entire hotel is non-smoking! Would stay again!"
