Great little hotel, not to be overlooked! Had many little extras that made it a much more nicer experience than the big corporate hotels. Yes, the rooms are small, but not missing anything you need. Exceptionally clean and cozy. Breakfast is outstanding better than the usual! Great price friendly staff would definitely stay there again.

This hotel was so clean and was able to accommodate our large family with adjoining rooms which was so convenient. Breakfast was included and had so many options, coffee is provided 24/7, and they had all kinds of amenities and conveniences for whatever one may need. And the price point was so low! Will definitely recommend this hotel to anyone staying in the area!

Wonderful stay here at Hotel Ruby. The staff were very helpful. The room was comfortable. There was a small park on the side of the hotel which became a great place for my little grandson to run around and burn off energy from sitting in the car most of the day. Would definitely plan to stay here again if I'm in the area.
