Will stay here again, accommodating for the handicap. If they adjust the bed side table.
Pros:

Great coffee, breakfast was plentiful and delicious. Room was great, bed comfy, lots of large pillows.

Cons:

The room was handicap and it's at the end of hall far from elevator. My husband is in a power chair, but I'm not and it was a long walk !!! the side table should be on hinges, for my husband has to use a slide board,he was top far down, so I had to pull him up to his pillows.

Pros:

The place was ok. The staff was friendly

Cons:

Lobby smelled like vomit (may have just been awkward timing though-- I understand things happen), room was furnished in the most basic way. Bed was squeaky. Facilities were minimal.

Pros:

The hotel was very clean and appeared to be newer. The location was perfect as it was 5 min from the wedding we were attending. Breakfast was very basic but adequate.

Cons:

Walls were very thin. The men in the next room talked loudly late into the night.
