I really enjoyed this room.

The room was very comfortable, convenient and clean. It was arranged as if I had laid it out for me. (plugs etc.) I really appreciated the eco friendly soaps. There were dispensers at the shower and sink instead of wasteful little bars and bottles. I liked the way the bedding was arranged with clean sheets on both sides of the comforter. The bed and pillow were very comfy. The ADA bathroom fit my needs very well. I will come here again.

The Inn itself is nice and the service was good. It’s just right next to a highway. The noise in the room with the windows and door shut wasn’t too bad, but outside it was pretty loud.
