The bathroom was terrible - the shower didn't drain - you were standing in dirty water. Caulking was needed everywhere. I know it's a very old building but charging people to stay should result in applying more funds for upkeep.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. One of the young men even used his phone to order dinner for us! They were helpful with guiding us to restaurants and helping take up our luggage. The only issue that was not great was the stairs and having to go up two flights. Otherwise, the hotel was good.

Bed was comfortable but everything could definitely use some fresh paint & TLC. Wouldn’t stay there again especially for the $$$ Staff were ok but definitely not what I would call friendly. There was no TP in the bathroom when we got there so we had to go up & ask for it. He brought it but with no apology.

There wasn’t any cold water in the shower so water was scalding hot also when we turned the water on in the sink the water leaked under the toilet! we reported these issues and told they would be addressed but they were not!!!!!!! Bed was comfortable but room was in really bad shape! Front desk check person was super friendly but doesn’t make up for not being able to shower! I’m a budget traveler and I don’t mind an older hotel but this one is in serious need of repairs and a good cleaning! The location was pretty far from any stores or food when I asked the night person where we could get a bite to eat In the area he said he didn’t know!! It was pretty rough good thing we only booked for 2 nights and found another hotel for the rest of our trip

I stayed for 2 nights. The staff were friendly and accommodating. I did not make use of bar or restaurant due to having other plans. The room was quite small but adequate. It was however rather tired and could have been a little cleaner.

We arrived at 4:30 pm. Checking was anytime after 3. There was no parking and was told that nearest parking would be at least a 15 min walk. We had luggage and a guest with heart issue. We asked to see the room because the hotel desk area didn’t appear as the photos. The room had no been cleaned and rags and cleaner left in room. Bathroom was dirty. We said we couldn’t stay as this was not acceptable. We contacted Expedia. They contacted the manager who lied and said we never came to the hotel only called. That is not true. He would not refund our money. Very disappointed in both this Hotel and Expedia for not doing the right thing. It is not our fault that room was not cleaned and no parking except maybe at a public lots 15 minute walk away. Why lie? Very very poor business attitude towards their hotel conditions and their guests expectation.
