Best deal, safe and clean
Clean room, especially the bathroom. Furniture was not newest, but was everything we needed for an overnight, all in good repair, and frankly we could appreciate that pieces didn't all match for sale or environment and economic factors. Breakfast was small and cold, but filling and fresh. Heat/AC worked great. Frankly this was the best we have gotten for such a rate. Oh, and the beds had clean linens, variety of pillow types, and medium firmness, for those that need to know.
