Short but sweet

Pros: large room with tall ceilings, clean, great ceiling fans, easy checkin, friendly staff, convenient location to area amenities, good breakfast selections, Cons: biggest con for me was that it is right next to freeway - traffic noise and boom box noise. Small con-mismatched furniture

Great place for the cost.

Clean room. Helpful at front desk. Nice hot breakfast. The rooms are large. We have stayed at this property before and will most likely stay there again. It is a nice property for the cost.
