“While some may find the building showing its age, its proximity to the fairgrounds offers undeniable convenience; rooms maintain acceptable cleanliness, though details like dusty lampshades might be noticed. Despite mixed reports on staff attentiveness and breakfast quality, the restful environment and functional accommodations provide a solid base for fair visits. It presents a practical choice, primarily valued for location.”
