I really have no complaints. Stayed here on a Friday for one evening. The rooms might be a little dated but fairly tidy. The kitchenette was a nice addition. There's only hand soap and shampoo, so if you want conditioner or lotion just bring your own. The blanket were thin, and though there is one extra one, just ask for more if you need a warmer cover. The pillows were pretty thin. The continenta...

The guy in the front desk was very welcoming. Booked the place very last moment and got a good deal. Moreover, during the breakfast time the woman who were serving; helped with the pancake machine as I wasn’t sure how to use it. Overall, it’s a steal for that price. Would recommend. We left the property with a warm feeling of satisfaction inside.
