Clean, comfy beds but NOISY.

The front desk was very friendly/helpful. There was a family style restaurant (Peppers) less than 1/4 mile away that was delicious. Beds were comfy. The only drawback was that you could hear every car noise and people talking outside all night long. Also the sink and tub were both very slow draining.
