Not a great hotel.

Front desk staff were not very friendly, not rude or anything, just not friendly. Cleaning gentleman was very nice! Continental breakfast was terrible: waxy donuts and no water available..had to leave the hotel space to get water. Room was too warm but it was clean. The towels were clean but stained.

The only positive is that the front desk clerk was warm and welcoming. The room had a dank smell, no windows to the outside, and too warm because the thermostat does not control the AC.

This hotel was an interesting find. The room was nice and had the basic amenities, but since it didn't have an outside window, it had big windows to the hallway, which allowed sunlight to come through from the hallway windows. Breakfast was OK but didn't have the waffle options that many places have. Parking is tight. If you have a large vehicle, you better be a good driver.

My friend and I stayed here when I was having surgery. Obviously the hospital is across the street which made it convenient and an obvious choice. Staff were friendly and helpful. My only complaint regarding the room is that it was very muggy which made the bedding feel damp and we could really smell the laundry detergent because of it, which was not a deal breaker by any means. While I was in the hospital for surgery, my friend strolled around the area. He said that there was a lot of nice places to eat and shop within walking distance. The parking situation wasn't that great. Both lots are small and the parking spaces are super tight, but again, other than driving me to the front entrance of the hospital when I had surgery (it was raining pretty hard), my car was just parked. I would book it again if I needed to place to stay.

Nice, comfortable stay

The staff were all welcoming and helpful. The rooms and beds were comfortable and quiet. The hotel could be updated, but everything was tidy. Just a few small things could be improved: adding a water fountain or filtered water access. The water dispenser was empty. The free breakfast had good shelf stable and fridge stable items, but the donuts were not the freshest. Could skip those items that lose freshness quickly.

I wouldn’t stay here. It’s dated, dark and no water bottles. There is not much in this part of town and if you need a refresh during a medical stay, this isn’t the place.

The hotel was quiet and the room was clean with all standard amenities. The bed was comfortable and the rooms were affordable. The only drawback is very limited space to pull into the hotel drop off and almost no parking available.

Lots of construction around property! Hard to walk much less drive. Can’t blame hotel for that. Place was different, rooms had glass walls that faced hallways. With curtain drawn no problem. Good restaurant right next door. With low price we paid pretty satisfied.

Room was very nice, BUT there were no windows to the outside - for that reason we would not stay again. The only windows were to the outside hall, so if you want any privacy, you'd have to keep the drapes closed at all times - which makes it very dreary. It was very convenient walking to the hospital though - but not worth having no windows.

Well my grandparents stayed her when it was the Fiksdal Hotel and was established in 1965. The hotel was extensively renovated and remodeled in 2015. The hotel looks close to the same with bad newly decorated rooms. The staff is really shady looking with their friends hanging out in lobby sometimes. The only plus was cookies and coffee in very worn lobby. Bathrooms were clean but already falling apart. I paid extra money for city view. Don’t waste your money. You get what you paid for. I have pictures of not collecting garbage, 4 lights in bathroom out of the 4 lights one bulb out and others different colors, grout falling out of loose corner shelf in shower, poor water flow in shower, very dark room, had to lift lid of toilet to replace handle because kept sliding out and for some reason they used a drywall screw in toilet tank. And cops called because of fighting in hall and yelling at 12:05am.
