The staff were very friendly, and I especially liked how clean the bed sheets and towels were.

The room was outdated, in need of maintenance but most importantly dirty. Months of dust collection on shelves, ledges and furniture. The kitchen floor was sticky and the shower drip seal fell off. There was plenty of room and a good location for our needs.

Regular stop when all ee need is a clean bed and bathroom. Rooms are a bit dated but otherwise served the needs. No soap in shower which was a pain
