"This is a very outdated hotel. It was relatively clean and the front staff was helpful. I would like to make one suggestion. We went to breakfast a little late and we were eating our breakfast and just about to go up and get seconds when one of the staff dumped all the food at exactly 10 AM. They had just filled it with new stuff five minutes earlier. I think it would be helpful to wait until the last people are gone. Or at least wait an extra five or 10 minutes."

There were full size mirrors behind the beds with full length lights behind the beds. They were also recess can lights throughout the room. It smelled clean and fresh. It was absolutely perfect. We would love to stay there again. The breakfast was amazing! Delicious hot eggs, biscuits, gravy, bagels with cream cheese, orange juice and much more. A nice indoor pool.
