Jeff and Naomi were great to deal with. Room two was very noisy there is something mechanical going on in the ceiling that sounds like metal expanding against wood about every 45 mins hard to sleep. It’s old and needs an upgrade but it was clean and good for a short stay.

We got the physical key, and were only there for one night. The continental breakfast leaves alot to be desired.
