Room was clean, had expected tolitries, breakfast was good. Adjacent to interstate so some road noise but didn’t bother me and did not really notice it. Cannot beat the price. I believe it was built in 2025.

Older property in need of some tlc, but what stood out was the attention the staff gives to both the property and their guests. Every time I left my room there was someone cleaning in the public spaces on the property, room a bit dated but comfortable enough for a night.
