Great hospitality
We had to book a last minute stay and this was the perfect place. The location is close to the highway and you do not have to travel far for most of your needs. They have a convenience store with items you may want to buy and the prices are extremely reasonable. The front desk staff was very friendly. We would definitely stay here again!
