Timberland Inn & Suites

8/10 Good
"Room size was excellent for the price. We got a family room and had more room than we'd had in any other place. Only drawbacks are that the room is dated and the smoke detector was beeping at 2am. We had no other issues, staff was super friendly and apologized for the smoke detector."
