The room was spotless, beds were comfy, the bathroom was well stocked with anything you could need (soaps, makeup remover, hair dryer, different sized towels, etc.), tv had lots of channels/ cable (we could watch storage wars!!), and the breakfast began at an early time (6am) which we really appreciated as we had to leave by 6:45 am.

Very quite clean and updated property. I appreciated the small kitchenette with full size mini fridge coffee maker and microwave. Breakfast was a hot breakfast and had a good variety of foods. All in all a good option for a long term stay.
