Lovely clean room, great size! Bathroom appeared to have recently been updated, hot shower and lovely fluffy towels! The beds were super comfy! Location was great! Only downside they didn't offer breakfast, but that really wasn't a big issue! We only stayed one night, but would happily stay for multiple nights, if back in the area!
