this was a good property for the cost, and the location to the caverns could not have been better. The staff was very helpful at check-in and the room is comfortable, clean and accomplishes what we need from a hotel.
William, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Nice room, very large with a private toilet and shower, plus a semi private sink area, I thought that was a nice touch. The area around it was a good vibe with a restaurant and small grocery store. Perfect if you are going to the cavern, it's literally right there.
