I was a bit skeptical when I arrived at the property as it did not resemble the online photos as I had booked in a hurry. Check-in went smooth and I cautiously found my room. Upon entry, I was IMPRESSED with the cleanliness and newly renovated room. It was clean and comfortable. Don't judge the rooms by the motle style property as this is a 2 thumbs up stay

The hotel is very nice, the rooms are simple but spacious with a good sized fridge. The cleanliness of one building was very poor especially in the bathrooms of two rooms we stayed in. Soap stains, hair, dirty sinks! The other building had clean rooms and bathrooms. We moved rooms due to the poor hygiene, then had another dirty room but before we could report it, a fight broke out next to us. As we had a connecting door that had gaps it was awfully loud and frightening so we moved buildings. As I was on crutches moving bags this many times was very unpleasant. It all ended up a good stay in the end with a helpful front desk staff. Will we return? I don't know.

This is clearly an older hotel but it has been remodeled and done nicely. It's obvious that they put in the effort to make the place top notch. The only area that could use some work is the work out room. The room is very small and has very limited equipment.
