The room was clean and the king bed was quite comfortable. The heater was a bit loud but very effective, and the heated air fan in the bath was a nice touch; plenty of hot water, too. The microwave oven was small but worked well, and the mini-fridge was bigger than many we've seen. The staff were friendly and helpful, and cheerfully accomodated our late arrival.

Lean freshly painted rooms, helpful staff, lean towels upon exchange, offer in room. The only down side to this trip was the fire alarm going off at 1:30 am one morning. New system being put in and it sounded at 1:30 am. After calling the manager, it was turned off 15 minutes later. Other than that it was a good price for a comfortable clean room
