Quiet, convienent, clean. The property is a bit outdated, but, they seem to be doing updates to at least a room everytime I have stayed, which had been a few times in the last couple months and I'll be back often when I'm in the area, you really can't beat the price for what you get.

The room was very clean, and the bed was comfortable and had a sufficient number of towels. It was also nice and quiet except for the air conditioner was a little noisy but not bad. For the price it was worth it.

The desk clerk was very nice! Bed was comfortable. Room had a smell, there was an air freshener attached to the conditioner- way too strong! Storm window is off the track, remote control barely worked (we tried new batteries, no change) the door unlocked ok, but there’s a problem with the door handle - doesn’t always want to open. New tub enclosure is nice.
