It was a great price for one night with five adults. The room was clean and comfortable. While we never saw the staff onsite (we came in late and left early) they were very communicative via email. We had no issues with noise, and the restrooms and showers, while not ensuite, were clean and fine. The surrounding area was less clean and around the corner there were a couple of people clearly bedding down for the night. But at no time did anyone feel unsafe.
