Though the hotel is a little older the rooms and common areas are impressive clean and well cared for. The staff was very nice to work with. Some of the decor is a little dated but again very well maintained. Weathers in early spring so exterior landscaping could use some attention but nothing bad. Another good stay at this property. Thank you!

The hotel is clean, but the property feels worn and outdated, and has a lingering musty odor. It comes across as surface-level upkeep in need of a renovation. Good for 1 night or 2.
