It was a shockingly nice place to stay. The room was recently updated and modernized, and was absolutely beautiful. The bathroom had also been updated, and was very classy. The whole room/bathroom looked more like a Holiday Inn Express than a Budget Inn. I was very pleasantly surprised. It was well worth the money, and I would gladly stay there again.

When I booked this online, I was supposed to get a king. I ended up with two queens. There were permanent stains on the bed cover as well as the bathroom towels. It was definitely not what the picture indicated.
