Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Good: Wifi, Shower, Bathroom, Kitchen, Bed, Good working space, tv. Clean and tidy. Free parking. Bad: Needed an extension cord to plug my laptop in from the table, though I could have used the desk under the TV. But this was just a bit too small for my requirements. Room was close to the road, so a little noisy. Most food options were a drive away.

We had only 1 night stay. Property was in a great spot. Room was clean big and well appointed. Didn’t notice any facilities but that doesn’t mean there were none. Bed was big and comfortable and really nice to have so many tv channels to choose from. Will definitely stay again.
