The price for this hotel was fantastic. We had stayed at this hotel in the past with a good experience. This stay did not disappoint. The staff is very friendly, and the room was very clean. If you are looking for a clean, comfortable hotel without all the frilly luxuries, this hotel is just what you are wanting. We would definitely stay again and again.
