Good sized room with very comfortable big bed. Cleaning of yhe room is only done every 7 days. Could have done with a little more frequently just to empty bins etc. No issues and reception staff always said hello and were friendly.

Having read some reviews was apprehensive ahead of my visit. I cannot fault the property, big room, comfortable bed and quiet. Yes it needs redecorating here and there but did not detract from my stay. Was half the price of other hotels in area but I had all I needed.

Perfect for our needs. Great area of town close to interstate highway. Close to restaurants. But the property is dated and dirty. Needs fresh paint and for the ice machines to be in working order.
