Shelby

I chose a room on the first floor which I would never do again due to late check in and visitors running in and out and slamming the door all night but yes, I will stay there in the near future. The location was great. There were some loud cars passing by but not enough noise to make me not visit. The bed was super soft and the shower had nice hot water. Love it. I will be back. I wish the room was a bit larger because the fit was tight for only my husband and I but it served its purpose.
