My daughter and I stayed here the night before a program for prospective students at the local college. We booked by a call to the hotel in advance, and they matched the internet discounters while guaranteeing two double beds and non-smoking. The follow up e-mail was prompt and correct, and or 1am arrival did not cause any problem.
This is not a new property. It is a little old style and worn, but it was pretty nice and clean and had a good looking pool area we never had time to try. The room was large and well equip, with very comfortable beds and pillows. It was dark and quiet, easy parking, right off the highway and moments from the downtown and college, and adequate to our needs in all ways. We did have a problem with the sheets on one of the beds in the room we were first given looking dirty (everything else was very clean and I think the maid just missed changing that bed), but the desk clerk was very apologetic and quickly switched us to a different room that was clean. Water pressure was good, included breakfast pretty typical and fairly good (small continental with a waffle maker, toast etc.) Check out was fine and we will stay there again if ever in the area.
