"The property was nice going in. I was originally supposed to have a single queen room and the man at the front desk gave us a two queen for no extra charge. The room was clean other than the floor needing vacuumed and some of the bathroom surfaces being wiped down. Breakfast was nothing special, but nice to have. Not a bad place to stay for the price."

"The room was exceptionally clean as was the whole hotel. The breakfast bar was also extremely clean and well stocked. The only things that could be better would be a place to put your luggage as there was no luggage rack and in the bathroom there was no hook on the back of the door for a robe or clothing. Another place to hang your hand towel would also be appreciated."
