Parking is easy, room and facility was clean. I just didn't like that the room doesn’t have any real space to put/hang clothes. I cant reach the hangers on the side of the tv not convenient.

We just needed a clean afordable place to stay close to the highway on our drive north. This hotel was perfect for that. We did not need to enjoy the amenities or anything else just needed beds for family of 5. Two rooms with full beds were more affordable than any other we could find.

The room was clean, had two simple but comfortable beds, a microwave, big fridge and a hot shower. I can't ask for more than that from a budget hotel. The lobby and first floor smell like stale cigarette smoke, but that's what you need to accept if you want a budget hotel; the smokers have been excluded from all the fancy hotels.
