Quite honestly I was apprehensive about staying here after reading all of the lousy reviews on this site...however my fiance and I were traveling with 4 children (ages 8-16) and I needed 2 rooms. As any traveler knows...lodging can be quite costly...the price was right at this hotel. We arrived and were greeted warmly by the front desk staff person who quickly ckecked us into our rooms. We were given rooms right next door to one another just as I had requested in my original reservation. However, I had requested a KING when I reserved and one was not available at check in so I had to settle for a Queen sized bed...No problem. The kids did get the 2-double beds I asked for. The rooms were small and functional and quaintly decorated. Because there was an in-window air conditioner the room smelled a little like damp cloth when we first walked in but after we aired the room out there was no further problem during our stay. The bed was better quality than I had expected. The sheets were crisp and white with no hint of wear and tear. I was VERY IMPRESSED with their bath towels. They were LARGE and THICK and very white. The same is to be said of their hand towels and wash cloths. I have stayed in some 5 star resorts that didn't have towels this nice. All in all our stay at this hotel was pleasant. I would go back and stay at this place again. If what you are looking for is a roof over your head, clean linens, and a comfortable place to sleep, then this is a great place to do it.
