The woman who checked us in was absolutely lovely. She was patient, kind and had great energy. Our room was just ok. the fridge was dirty and the couch was peeling. There was a musty smell when we came in. The bathroom was clean, and the shower had good water pressure.

Decent stay

Reasonably priced, good sized room. It was clean but a little dated. Grab n go breakfast was decent. We appreciated the access to the gym and laundry. We walked to town in 20 mins.

The property and room were fine. The room could use better lighting. There is no overhead light. The desk lamp was missing a bulb and a finial to hold the shade in place. I was provided a bulb by the front desk upon request but, the lamp was completely non-functional.
