7.4/10 Good! (908 reviews)
The staff were very pleasant and helpful. Always had a smile and always willing to help out.
The properties however, were old and very dated. Needs new carpeting throughout, fresh paint and other maintenance issues. The rooms were clean and beds comfortable. Unfortunate the rest of the hotel was so run down.
