Nice Inn

It is a low key-style small Inn, but scores high in cleanliness, comfort, and very economical in fees. Close to downtown. Offered small breakfast bar and coffee. Friendly staff.

This is an older property that has been renovated. The rooms were clean and comfortable. There was a park next door that seemed to be a little sketchy. The area overall was older but OK and convenient.
