Quiet and peaceful getaway, nice size comfortable beds nice Bug Screen TVs I suggest bringing either your Roku or Firestick tho lol, some of the nicest and friendliest staff.. the cleaning lady is one of the sweetest people you can ever meet I try not to make her job harder when having to clean my room I’ll clean up myself before leaving

Sometimes you might have some guest checking in that can be a little rude, fighting for a good parking spot or they’ll block you in.. Hate that 😆

Very private not many rooms it’s on a first come first serve basis but I enjoyed it since I didn’t have many neighbors around me. Then the staff was very understanding about the deposit my advice is don’t trash the room and don’t have extra people in the room and they will return your ID and deposit as well very lovely staff.

Parking was limited but otherwise very fair.

It was a dive on the outside, so I was extremely surprised at how nice the room looked on the inside. And, really, that was truly comforting.

This worked out better than I thought it would, so I have nothing bad to report about the property.

They let me do a late check out at no extra cost.

Curtains need to be sun/light blockers.
