Very clean building, friendly staff there was a problem with the air in the first room, but the staff quickly got us into another room and had someone checking the air out in the first room. Great breakfast and fast easy checkout. Would most definitely stay here any time.

It was perfect for our overnight stay and super convenient to what we came to town to do. It was a little noisy as our room was on the frontside of the property, which is in front of a busy roadway.
