The hotel has been recently refurbished; new furniture, paint, and carpeting/flooring. Only drawback is the design from the 1960's and the noise from the interstate nearby. Ask for a room facing away from the highway.

The front desk staff were friendly and efficient. The room was clean and comfortable. The hallway was a little noisy but not too bad. The only complaint was the water pressure in the bathroom sink was turbo charged but the washer pressure in the shower was NOT! I made do, though. 🙂
