Old and very tired facility. Quite dirty in common areas though rooms were ok. Just old and worn out. Staff was helpful but seem to neglect the upkeep of the facilities. Also it's right on a busy noisy highway. Over priced for what's on offer.

Wonderful staff, very helpful and welcoming

The staff was very helpful, the front desk made our family feel welcome and even joked with the kids (10&11). Breakfast was a good variety and had healthy vegan options as well. Everything was presented up front and there were no surprises. Quiet even though right by the highway, you could not hear outside until it rained.
