8/10 Good

"I was only there for one night but fo the price it was not bad. There could be more staff assisting as there were multiple times front desk was left unattended or you had to search for someone. Breakfast was OK- but there is a dinner right next door if you are not a fan."

Hotel Hanna

8/10 Good

"The room was bright, clean, and comfortable. The bathroom too. There is no breakfast included, but you are close to downtown. There is no coffee maker in the room, but there is coffee in the lobby. Parking in the hotel's lot is extra. The hotel is by the waterfront, which is good if you have time on your hands."
