Overall Score4.0/ 5
Everyone that we ran into were very helpful and very kind. Room was clean. My room was overlooking the liquor store roof, so the view wasn't spectacular, but it was quite! I actually needed quiet over a view šŸ˜‰ We were here.

"Horrible!"
Overall Score1.0/ 5
This hotel is worse than any Motel 6. Filthy, no hot water, drapes hanging off the wall. Filthy room, toilet seat not secured, sink faucet not secured, they mentioned a gym you hop on the treadmill you get two minutes and it shuts off. Do not stay in this hotel. They charge us $268 I'm going to try and get some money back.
