10/10 Exceptional

pleasant staff, clean rooms, clean sheets, neat room in general. Close to highway, breakfast included, clean dining area, fresh coffee, good variety of available foods. Have been staying in this place several times before, never had any issues with my last or previous stays. For the price, I doubt one can find better or more suitable place in that general area.
