This place had a bad reputation in years prior under a different name and, I guess, different ownership. When I arrived and recognized it, I was a little wary. But it seems to have been turned around under present ownership. My room was very clean, seemed to have been recently remodeled. The bathroom was modern. The bed and pillows were comfortable. The only very minor things that it was missing was maybe a blow dryer and a place to hang up clothes if you needed to. As I said, minor. I'd stay again.

Wonderful experience

A lovely receptionist greeted me with a warm smile and made me feel welcomed. The room was very adequate. Very clean, updated and comfortable. Bed was very comfy.The bathroom was very nice as well. Great price for a room. Well lit outside and i parked 6 ft from my door which I love. I felt very safe as an older female traveling alone Definitely would stay again amd highly recommend!
