Anonymous, Mar 2019
Pros (+) The rooms were spacious, and the staff were nice.
Cons (-) The rooms, especially the bathrooms are a bit dated. It would be a good idea for the hotel to go through a remodel. But it was clean and everything worked, just needs to be brought out of the 90s.

Anonymous, Dec 2017
Pros (+) The staff are extremely friendly and helpful and the location is ok. The view is pretty good as well.
Cons (-) Evidently the room had just been "refreshed" however the bathroom was extremely dated with cheap metal fittings that reminded me of my early days in the Army. The layout of the room was bizarre to say...
