Easy in-easy out private little independent owned hotel. Easy access and close walking distance to the city. Not super brand new rooms but it was clean and just perfect for the night. Pool and hot tub were very nice. Decent tv channels and bed/pillows. No breakfast and tight parking was the only down side. Besides that 100% perfect for our 1 night get-a-way!
