The hotel is getting remodeled, we did get one of the newer rooms and it was quite nice. The shower was fancy. The beds comfortable and there was a little fridge and microwave in the room. It is walkable to places to shop and eat.

This is an older hotel. However, it's in the process of being updated. Our room was very nice compared to how the building looks, which is not completed yet. The only thing I didn't like was that there were no beside tables.

Should have been told that they were under going renovations. Lack of important furnishings. The most uncomfortable bed, the bed was very difficult to get into because it was very high. Not a pleasant experience at all.

when we booked this property we didn't realize is was being remodeled, the parking lot is full of construction material and junk very unsafe, plus it took up half the parking lot. when we checked in the office staff and several customers were drinking in the lobby and several were very drunk. the first room they gave was nothing like the picture shown on there website,they did move us into a better room that was very difficult to get to do to all the junk in the parking lot. i was very unhappy with this property and think we should get some kind of refund!!!! i would not recomend this property to anyone at this time,

Great view and Main Street was fun.
This hotel is under remodeling. We stayed in the room that was 75% finished. I believe it will be a nice room once all the furniture arrives and the workers clean up and leave. Perfect location for us!!!
