I stayed for 1 night with my family that included 2 children. It’s a decent place. Clean both inside and outside. Very quiet at night and a lot of lighting in the parking lot which we loved. I would definitely stay there again.

They have changed the name and upgraded the rooms recently. I have stayed at this hotel several times over the years. The upgrade is nice. Our room was fresh and clean. The bathroom sink area was very nice and new. The staff here is consistantly friendly. Would definitely recommend this hotel.

Meh

There aren’t bbq or gardens that I’ve seen. the beds aren’t comfortable. I hear people all night and feel my room vibrating from anyone walking by on my floor or being upstairs. Parking sucks. Our refrigerator was unplugged and smelled like rotten fish.
