Room was clean and tidy. Staff was ok. Location is great for us. My only complaint is there was no soap in the bathroom. At this price you would expect to have something.

The room was not very clean, carpet was dirty and needed to be vacuumed, the restroom floor was dirty needed to be swept, the windowsill in the bathroom was covered in dirt, the coffee maker in the room was covered in dust as was the microwave. The bed did not have a top sheet only a thin blanket but the bed itself was comfortable and had lots of pillows. Oh and the tv only had a few local channels and parking is tight

I don’t think they cleaned the bathroom between the previous guest and our stay. We had to ask for toilet paper because there wasn’t any in the room, there was hair in the shower, and there was sticky spots of urine around the toilet.
The heater was also quite loud, though it didn’t keep us up, thankfully.
Staff was nice, the bed was comfortable, and the breakfast was decent. It’s a decent place for the price.
