Good (But dated) Hotel
The stay was ok. Some (small) things I noticed was the indoor thermometer to my room didn't appear to be connected to the unit in my room, so the unit had to be operated manually; the remote for the tv was wonky at best, and the upholstery in their breakfast area looked torn in places.
