Overall, this is a very nice, comfortable, stay. We came to celebrate our anniversary. The only thing was the jacuzzi. The jets worked for a bit but then they went off. I waited a bit to try again (like a timed thing) but no, it wouldn't come on. To not get upset, I just chose to enjoy the big tub of soaking and relaxing bubble bath.

Good Budget-Friendly Place
Good budget-friendly hotel. Bring your own pillows if you like fluffy ones. Softener with the towels would go a long way. No frills place; ok for a night.
