This served our needs as a one-night stop over but I can't recommend it if you require hot water or towels (we had neither). The freeway was about 100 ft outside our door so it is quite loud if you are on that side of the building.

Me and my family have stayed here a few times and each time has been such a great experience. The friendlessness of the married couple that manage this hotel make you feel so warm and welcomed from the point of check-in until the moment you checkout. They've done an amazing job of renovating this hotel. I look forward to our next stay.

Wonderful stay

I really like it there. They took such good care of me during my stay. I work nights so they let me do an early check in and late check out. They made sure to put me in a room far away from any kind of noise. I’ve stayed her numerous of times and each stay was great. I’ll keep coming back until my contract with work is over.

Great, nice stay!

My stay was great! They were very accommodating in what I needed. I work night shift so they let me have a room far off from any kind of noise. The hotel has been renovated so everything in my room was updated and clean. The man who checked me in was very nice and made sure I had everything I needed. I’ll be back of course.
