Last minute booking but we are so happy with the stay. Room was very clean, beds/pillows were comfy, and the actual grounds was very very quiet. We had people staying on both sides of us plus right above us and we never heard anything. Breakfast was just cereal, oatmeal, and packaged sweets but it was a monday they said there was more options on the weekend. Overall we will be back for our next stay.

Love this place.

This is the second time we’ve stayed here because it’s family friendly and not far from anything. The staff is always friendly and the hotel though on a busy street is quiet.

Beds are comfortable but noisy when you get in and out due to the metal frame. Room walls are very thin, you can easily hear the neighbors (and their dogs). Brekfast is very simple. Parking is convenient and the front desk was friendly. Area is slightly sketchy. For the price, it was ok.
