This was an slightly above average accommodation. Breakfast was pretty limited, but it saves on the overall cost, so some is better than none.
Pretty good stay!

The owners obviously put care into maintaining their hotel. The staff is helpful and conscientious. It's not fancy and the building is older, but it's solid, provides appropriate essentials, and it's kept clean. It had easy access to the highway to get to many points of interest. We would stay here again.

The manager and staff were very friendly.
The location was perfect for our needs as our son lives close by.
The building is older but the management are doing a great job of keeping it clean.
The pool is small but inviting.
The bedding and towels were very clean and white.

Pros: Clean room, clean bed, easy parking, elevator access, hot water, and quick friendly check in and check out.
Cons: Dirty hallways, smelled like smoke and mildew, overflowing trash bins, bed was a nod hard, and continental breakfast was just bread, cereal, and not so good looking eggs.
Overall the rooms are great but the common areas are not well taken care of.
Good for just a shower and sleep.
