Too noisy for any restful sleep
The AC made a noise that sounded like a dying cat every time it clicked on it off. The shower dripped constantly and I couldn’t get it to stop. The fire alarm also went off randomly in the middle of the night

Hotel was closed to many restaurants and right off the highway. The beds and pillows were extremely uncomfortable which was surprising since other reviews commented on how comfortable they were. Maybe we just had older rooms. Staff were friendly.

Terrible stay
Property was not clean and the beds were super worn out. So much so they were collapsing on the sides and very noisy. As a person with autoimmune issues, plush beds are a must. Will never stay here again!

When we first checked into our room the covers were soaking wet and the room smelled old and musky. when we called down to the desk to let them know they were very friendly and changed our rooms. Once our room was changed the beds were pretty comfortable and for an older hotel it was nice.
