Clean, basic.
Basic but more than adequate accommodations that was perfect for a one night stay. Clean though dated. If you want a straight to the point, no frills stay that is clean and warm, stay here.

I would give this 5 stars, but we are used to a memory foam bed mattress and our bed was too firm. Both my wife and I tossed and turned and woke up feeling sore in the hips due to the bed. The breakfast was good and appreciate the hospitality that was rendered.

Disappointed that the hot tub jets were not working. After a long day of travel my sore back was inflamed.

Pool was not open, front desk sally sassalot made no apologies for the pool not open and hot tub not working due to refurbishment. But instead made a comment as if it was my fault saying "most people who travel know to ask hotel if facilities are available, instead of just using the website as it takes months to update-know you know better...." snarky smile and just carried on like a robot. No apologies. No reimbursement or courtesy extended for something you pay for and not delivered but instead make it your fault. Very unpleasant, i was really looking forward to a heated pool. Most folks do.
