There is an awesome lady in front office. For her privacy I will keep her name private but she is one of the sweetest lady’s ever. And there is also a brunette that works during the night that is also very kind. I can not speak for the owners. They are not very pleasant. Neve smile. Are not welcoming but they are lucky to have good employees up front because that draws the business. If it wasn’t for them. I dont think anyone would want to stay here. They are bitter people. The rooms are as good as it gets for the price. Not bad at all. And I am a germaphobe so take my word for it. It’s a decent spot to lay your head
