I was a bit apprehensive as this is an older hotel and the price was low. However, I was pleasantly surprised. My room appeared to have been recently remodeled and was first class. The lobby and breakfast room are older but functional and the breakfast was good. The area is great with many options for dining and sight seeing! I would gladly go back.
