Once they get the remodeling done it will be a great place to stay. Even with the construction the staff was friendly and helpful.

Steve, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great hotel. The bed was super comfortable and the room was nice overall. The AC wasn’t working, but there were fans provided and sliding doors that opened fully. The room was a little run down, but for the most part, it was good. It also included a nice free breakfast with light refreshments, cereal, pastries, and bagels. I would stay again.
Rachael, 1-night trip

Alfred, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Property recently taken over by Red Lion. I'm sure it will be renovated. A/c was not working, everything looks worn and tired, but the bed was amazingly comfortable!

Great area
Schylar, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

The A/C was out in entire building, they opened the screen doors which was so loud outside and sweltering heat. The room was dirty garbage and not cleaned. The shower is scolding hot or ice cold and randomly changes on you. Staff was awesome and great location.
tiffany, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Old and run down. Paint was chipping in bathrooms, ac wasn’t working. Bed sheets were dirty and stained.
Valente, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Nothing was working. No AC...the card keys had to be reset twice a day...I cut my stay short and moved to another place. I may come back when they refurbishe the place because it's a great location. Right now, it's just falling apart. Tragic.

8/10 Good

was ok
John, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

We loved the view of the capitol and the harbor from the top floor room. The AC was out and the room was near 100 degrees both days in spite of everything we could do, so we did not sleep until well past midnight each night when it cooled down enough to be comfortable.
Karen, 2-night trip

4/10 Poor

The shower wouldn't shut completely off, no Air conditioning in the building when slider door was open it smelled of gasoline. I would suggest a refund, considering the building is about to be taken over and renovated
Good ol Capitol Lake aka (swamp lake)
