We booked this place one week in advance of a Saturday night stay compared to prices plus or -5 miles , this is a good value for the price @ $ 150 with taxes - the room is nothing fancy, but adequate equipped with a king size bed a small clean microwave a clean refrigerator a nice flatscreen TV with Comcast cable - most important all the bed linens and bath towels were crispy clean we pulled them back and the mattresses are clean - we didn’t have any disturbances and slept pretty good. The room did its job for us.

They let me check in @9am after working night shift and that is very considerate of them. Good thing the room was available at that time. The room itself is clean and tidy. Has a refrigerator and microwave. Overall my stay was very comfortable!
