Walls are thin. Got two noise complaints when I had just moved things into my room, only being there for 15 minutes. Manager was kind of rude but nice the next day. Threatened to kick me out on Christmas Eve due to being able to hear me from the lobby. Said all rooms were booked when they weren’t just to scare me.

Staff was A+ and the room was clean and very roomy. Only thing is the tv is too small for how far away it is from the beds.

The room was very clean, bed was comfortable, and quiet since it is slow season. The staff that checked me was having a bad day. But the staff the next morning was very nice, warm and inviting. Breakfast was good; eggs would be a great if you can add to the menu. Consider painting the doors and parts of the floor baseboards. They were scuffed up and paint was peeling. Overall, it was a pleasant stay.

Great value. Only suggested improvement would be to have a bigger TV. Very small and far away from the bed.
