Good stay but overpriced.
Pros:

beds were comftable and rooms were easy to access. The bathroom was of a good size. Everything worked good and it even had a small living room space with couches.

Cons:

When we arrived no one was there to attend to us, had to wait at least 10 to 15 minutes. After getting tired of waiting I called the desk and still no one came to answer. I ahd to go knock on office doors to find an employee. Also, the rooms seem very outdated and the tv as well.

Pros:

Was under the impression breakfast was included with the room. Not so . Discovered there was a recharge when we went down for breakfast.not willing to pay the cost for the same type of breakfast buffet that most hotels offer at no additional charge.

For the short stay that I was there for, it was fine.
Pros:

The staff was very nice and helpful. The bed and pillows were comfortable. The breakfast was ok. The restaurant itself very very lovely.

Cons:

The only complaint I have is with the bathroom. The back of the toilet seat with dirty and the mechanics for flushing were very loose. the shower knob also needs to be replaced.

Disappointing. Hotel has gone down hill.
Cons:

It is tired. They gave us the absolute worst room in the hotel. Lots of peeling wallpaper in the room and a toilet that did not flush. The hotel only had a few cars in the parking lot and there was hardly anyone staying there. When I went to complain they said that I did not book an updated room. I would not book again. They should not give the worst room because I did not book direct through them.

Will not stay there, will not recommend.
Pros:

Refused to honor my Booking.com confirmation and refused to even look at the emailed confirmation. Refused to tel mgr to try and work it out. Very rude.

Cons:

They failed to follow Booking.com’s protocol when we asked to switch date by one night. After 3 days w/o reply, and their failure to answer phone when I tried to call, we alerted Booking that we withdrew the chg request and would keep the original date. Booking confirmed orig reservation date so we arrived as reserved, only to be denied a room after driving 10 hrs.

Like time travel back to the 1960's
Pros:

helpful staff. comfortable bed. microwave and fridge were fine. good free cookies in the lobby. easy parking.

Cons:

free wifi was painfully slow. None of the smart TV apps would load (e.g. Netflix). Only one side table next to bed. No free outlets next to bed (the outlets in the lamps were faulty). No provisions for EV charging.

Very nice hotel in a great location.
Pros:

Rooms were nice with attractive furniture.

Cons:

We were given a room as far away from the elevator as you could get. We told staff we couldn’t do the stairs with luggage. She told us the elevator was a long walk from our room. If the hotel was booked I could understand but it was pretty empty. I would have thought the staff might have accommodated an older couple a given us a room a bit closer to the elevator.

Decent for the money, better if you like ants in your bed.
Pros:

Restaurant was good. Lobby, public bathrooms and general areas were nice and clean. Ample parking.

Cons:

Our room was dirty and had an ant problem. We found them climbing the walls, on the furniture, in the beds and in climbing out of the bathroom sink. The front desk staff did not seem to care. Their response was “oh, that’s too bad”
