Excellent customer service. Friendly staff, hot showers. Breakfast was okay enough to get the job done. I must say this hotel is an affordable hidden gem. My room could’ve been cleaned a little more but I’ve stayed in worser conations and paid more per night. I’ll definitely be back.

This is a very comfortable place to stay. The night I was there, it was exceptionally quiet. The bed was comfortable, too. The carpet felt clammy but was clean (I know because the bottoms of my feet were not dirty.) The bathroom trashcan had not been checked and that is why I left a 4 star because of what was in it. Other than that, it was a clean room. I would stay again and for a longer stay. My overnight in the area was last minute. The staff was friendly.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Our room had not been clean. There was no toilet paper and there were dried pee drops on the toilet seat. They then moved us to another room. Then there were no sheets on the pull out couch bed but there was a soiled, stiff wash rag in it. We went downstairs again and they gave us sheets. So we had to make up our own bed.
