Pleased with my stay
I stayed here for a quick overnight trip. It was clean, convenient, and comfortable. My room had plenty of space to relax and unwind. It was located right off the interstate and there was a Mexican restaurant in the same parking lot you could easily walk to. I enjoyed my stay and would stay here again.
