Very hard mattress & noisy until 10pm

The staff was great, but location right on the main road was very noisy. Fortunately it quieted down about 10pm. Room was clean and very nice... BUT... the bed was very, very hard. I could never stay here again due to the hard mattress.

The customer service was excellent. Everyone I interacted with were very helpful and friendly. I thought the bathroom could be cleaner. There was urine on the front of the toilet bowl and some weird stuff on the floor.

Clean and nice!

We went for a night with a family of 5. It was so clean, the lay out we had was with 3 beds big enough for 6. It was comfortable it had everything we needed. Breakfast was decent. I would definitely recommend and we will be back! Thank you.
