It's always a good stay at capitol hotel I enjoy the area and the staff always so helpful.

10/10 Exceptional

I really loved this hotel. It felt more like a family run place -- it was relatively small, it did not try to fit in the cookie cutter chains, and the staff was really warm and nice. I stayed there for several days, and by the end of my stay it felt like home. The location was great too, directly across from two parks. Check out the nearby Vietnamese restaurant, and thanks to the staff for being so responsive!

The hotel/motel was clean and staff was friendly Close to stores and restaurants but a little hard crossing roads if walking no real crosswalks. The room we were in had slow WIFI but otherwise a nice place to stay and great value for your dollar

Friendly staff but the room was a little dirty when I arrived and there was no hand soap in my bathroom. I will say the breakfast was the highlight of my stay and was far better than I expected.

It was absolutely beautiful this hotel is very close to everything staff is like family. Shout out to the maintenance man. My room air wasn’t working properly he immediately changed my room with an upgrade and brought me lunch. The front desk guy Hussin was absolutely amazing as well . Will be staying there 1000 more times. 💕💕💕

The location was fantastic, the breakfast very good, and the staff was great and very accommodating. The fridge, TV, microwave in the room were nice. I understand that the property is going through a face-left, which is needed. Some of the room (bathrrom) was not cleaned well but I'm pretty picky.

Breakfast is great for the price. I don't like the locks personally. It's very difficult to get in the room as the card doesn't work most of the time.
