Our room was not very clean. I don’t think they cleaned behind the bathroom door in years. The carpet edges in the room hadn’t been vacuumed for a very long time as well. Several things that should’ve been in the room or not and we had to ask for them. The staff was very nice and very friendly.

The front desk person was rude and unprofessional. He does not want to help when asking question. The place smells cigarette from inside out. The room is filled with smell and old. Do not stay here period, not worth a penny.

They did not clean after guess left. In the bathroom you could find pieces of soap with hair, wraps. The towels so old and yellow, the floor in the bathroom dirty; bad smell…In the back of the property garbage, junk. The place has potential but they do not take care of it😩

It wasn't really clean. The outside back stairs had carpet on them but the carpet was worn and torn and taped in areas. The wood where it was torn was rotten. The "breakfast" consisted of pre fried and boiled eggs that were how old? There was cold cereal and limited amount of fruits and milk.

Our hosts, Suma and Dinesh, were wonderful. Both were warm and kind and sincere and helpful and humble and joyful. We thoroughly enjoyed talking and sharing with them. They were never without a smile on their faces... and neither were we! Their sense of humor made our day! They were a real blessing.

Hotel is worn and needs an update. Pool was “closed for the season”, which is disappointing for kids. I don’t know why it cannot be advertised if the pool is closed, especially if it is long term. Hotel beds were clean and comfy, but the room is very tight with two beds.

There isn't really a breakfast. Staff is very nice. Price would've been cheaper if I called in rather than use Expedia. The receipt I got showed $220 and paid $270 on Expedia. Pool was closed but we didn't care since we didn't have children. Room was clean. Good place to lay your head at night.

The hotel manager provided a "white glove" ever so attentive effort to ensure that all our needs were met. Breakfast was always bountiful . The Roosevelt Suite was spacious; the beds comfortable and the coffee the best hotel room coffee i'd ever had.
