The rooms as clean and comfortable. It was a bit dated and rough around the edges but not too terrible. The parking was nice to have but could be a bit tight.

Nice little place. Nicely updated on the outside. Location was okay but it was just a stopover so not a big deal.

The location is on the outskirts of town, but easy to get into town. Free parking close to your room and a good value. Room had everything we needed.
