The room was comfortable, the shower needed repairs but still workable. The staff were amazing and attentive. We were staying for a family funeral and it was easily accessible to church, funeral home and family. We would stay again when seeing family in area.

The room was spotless, bed very comfortable, amenities were in the shower wall which made it very easy to use. The staff was so nice and helpful, special the woman that worked when we checked in at 4pm. We left at 5:30 am, so didn’t have time to eat the breakfast, but it looked nice. The frig and microwave worked nicely. Also, very quiet. Close to many restaurants/shops and Mercy hospital if you need medical care or to visit someone. For our needs it met perfectly. I understand and could tell rooms had been updated.

This is an older facility, but it smells good and it's clean. The room had watermarks on the ceiling, but it was clean. The reason for the three-star rating is that the breakfast was just awful. The bread had mold on it, more than 50% of the yogurt was out of date by about 10 days. It was not good. The staff could not have been more pleasant and more helpful. They were just great.
