Major improvements over the 2 years. Very clean, and warm reception with very good breakfast. Washroom light and fan need to work separately otherwise sound of fan is annoying if the light is left on.

There were people littering next to the place when we arrived. The room itself smelled like used wet towels. There were several stains, on the walls, counters, rug and sheets. The staff was amazing and it’s the reason this place gets 2 stars. It’s conveniently located, but I would advise folks to look for alternatives.
