This hotel was "average" in my mind. The parking lot was not located in manner that made it handy to bring luggage into and out of the hotel room. I would not plan on staying in this hotel again.

Overall Rating:
The Gennetti was acceptable. It was clean and the beds were decent. It was very old however and really needed updating but the room was fine to just go back and sleep in - which is all that we needed.

Overall Rating:
It was an ok stay. A little dated/due for a renewal on carpet. Overdue for a deep cleaning.
