Small room.

I stayed for 2 nights 9/5 and 9/6. I was given room 144. Just off the front desk. The room was clean. But the room was on the small size. Especially the bathroom. Sitting on the toliet my knees were inches from the wall in front of me. I tried turning on the TV, but all i got was no signal. Other than the small bathroom and feeling like i was in a closet, everything was good.

Not a bad little place

The staff was super friendly and easy to work with. The rooms were clean and everything was in working order. We booked 3 rooms, two of them didn't have great water pressure, but 1 had amazing water pressure. The mattresses aren't super comfy, but we're comfortable enough. The linens were clean and the Heat/AC worked good. The negatives Bring a pillow, the ones there are pretty thin Continental breakfast was pretty non existent, which was fine for us, we just grabbed something from the ez mart It was located close enough for everything we wanted to do and there were a lot of food places around. The road noise is pretty insane there, so if you're a light sleeper, plan accordingly. Everyone we encountered was friendly and more than willing to help, which is a plus! I definitely wouldn't be opposed to staying again. It's a good deal for the price.

It was one of the least expensive properties I found but it comes with a caviat. The second floor has no elevator and the stairs are steep and missing a handrail. They were also very dirty. The room was very clean, the bed was fine but the shower was a little tight for anyone of size. They had coffee packets but no coffee maker and the breakfast room was sad. The coffee maker ran out after a third of a cup and no one was around to speak to or service it. The breakfast assortment consisted of 5 apples, a FEW breakfast bars that I wouldn't eat after opening one. There was dry cereal and that was it. Oh, there was a juice dispenser that works.
