Our room smelled bad like someone was cooking curry. We left windows open all through the night but the smell was still there even in the morning. We found hair in the bathroom sink as well. But it is a quiet location, close to grocery store. The check inn was fast and easy.

clean and tidy with an excellent Indian Restaurant next door. We were honestly shocked just how nicely finished and clean and tidy the room was. We had motorcycled a long distance so were tired and worn out and we given a free upgrade to a ground floor king room. Definitely worth all the stars we gave them and would stay here every time we come to town.

Nicely remodeled rooms. Friendly service. Special coffees, but unfortunately no tea. But we were able to get a hot water kettle from the desk. We very much appreciate the eco friendly soap and shampoo dispensers.
