Worked for Us

This stay gave us a place to sleep for 2 nights while we were here for a friend who had heart surgery & was in the hospital. Bed was comfortable; shower worked well; AC was great. Facility is very outdated but clean enough. The price was VERY reasonable. It worked well for us on this trip & we basically only slept in the room. Staff was pleasant & helpful.
