I really like this hotel and I’ve stayed here every time I come back to my hometown. But I can tell that the attention to cleanliness and upkeep is severely beginning to lack. Please don’t turn into the old Holiday Inn/Ramada. Breakfast is fantastic and staff is kind enough…but I can tell that they don’t care much about the guests.
