Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is located right in the center of town, which makes it convenient for exploring the area. The rooms were a bit worn with shabby furniture, and the bathroom felt unfinished. On the positive side, the staff, especially Shawn the manager, were accommodating and helpful. The dining experience offered generous portions but was let down by cold plates and uncooked hash browns.
The hotel's location in the town center is convenient, but the noise from late-night revelers can be disturbing. The rooms are spacious, but the overall maintenance could be improved. The staff are friendly but may benefit from additional training in customer service. The dining experience is decent, but some dishes fell short of expectations. The car park is a plus point for guests with vehicles.
