Very Good

4th or 5th time staying here. Rooms always clean and comfy bedding. Never stayed on 1st floor and would rather not again but other then that would stay again. People above are not always the quietest.
Breakfast was out of all the hot food both times we checked but could see that staff was working on it.
Great for the price too
