First room not clean - requested change. The bathroom in second room was clean, but the shower fixtures were old and corroded. The towels were years old and yellowed and carpet was stained beyond repair. The lighting was dark and needed updating. Housekeeping services were not offerred on Thanksgiving which was ridiculous; cleaning was skipped day prior to holiday which meant no clean sheets or towels for two full days - absolutely unacceptable.

Clean and good location. Having to go down or up a floor for ice is not very acceptable, especially with directions saying North to South ends, when actually it should be East or West when hotel faces North.

Excellent friendly hardworking staff, clean room, and good breakfast. However, the property is quite worn and decor is very dated. The key card system was not working so we had to have an escort each time we wanted to reenter our room.
