The price was great. The rooms had what you would expect like a microwave, etc but the continental breakfast was lacking (all carbs, no protein). I booked a room on first floor, because of knee, but got one on second (no elevator). Little things, but things to consider.

This was the best night stay I've had on a last minute road trip. It was very quite, the bed was comfy and I got my deposit back in about 3 days! I wasn't expecting it because these places usually don't honor it but I did receive my deposit! That and how quite it was deserves a 5 star in my opinion!
