Great for a 1-2 night stay. The fridge needed to be wiped out, and there was something splattered on the wall, but was glad to have a fridge and microwave! The King room was nice and spacious, however, we could hear our neighbors conversation, clearly. I still say it’s great for the price!

Parking was right at our door. We needed a first floor room, as my husband is handicapped. They also furnished us a shower chair so he would be stable when showering. They were very helpful with our special needs.

Staff was nice and check in was easy. Says room have been recently renovated, ours was not and I will leave it at that. I don’t like leaving bad reviews, and we are not extremely picky about where we stay as it is usually for just one night. Unfortunately, this is one place we will not stay at again. I do not recommend for families either.
