A great stay! The room was clean, and exactly what was needed for an overnight stay. Parking as convenient area is quiet and there are nearby restaurants and dinning option. Very old fashion and simple, no TV. Great stay would book again!!

My room was clean, comfortable, and the water pressure was great in the shower. My room was warm also. I knew ahead of time that there were no ammenities like a television or internet, so I planned accordingly. Janice was lovely and welcoming. I will be staying there again.

As others have said, the property is very clean and comfortable, but basic. We were staying over for one night after an evening wedding. It was perfect for our purpose. It is well located for all area attractions. Janice went out of her way to accommodate our earlier arrival and it was much appreciated!

We enjoyed our one-night stay here. Terrific, unbeatable price. There was no TV but I don’t miss it as I was too tired from hiking all day and wanted sleep.

First off the property manager was johnny on the spot. Very friendly and helpful. The room was very clean. The building and furnishings were can I say a throwback to the 70's. We did not expect much due to the price. No amenities at all but did not expect. The manager had problems with our room and not having the keys to the room nor did she have a key to the adjoining room which was resolved by using the bed has a barrier to the door. My wife and I laughed it off but others may have been unnerved by the situation. It will be a memory we won't soon forget.
