Table and chairs in room need repairs. Table wobbly. Chair has worn out areas on cushions. Tissue box ( stainless steel) needs fixing. The front desk staff very helpful and honest( we accidentally left small luggage in parking lot and it was returned to us). Very grateful for that. The young man brought it to our door. Thank you!. The breakfast had good choices.

This place seems to be on its last legs. The only good thing was help provided by desk clerk and the room was close to the car. - door to room felt like a breeze could have opened it. - bed was OLD - - AIR conditioner sounded like a train running through the room. - breakfast wasthere - but all we fot was yogurt Only good thing was ut was cheap (get what you pay for) and easy to get to..
