7.8/10 Good! (203 reviews)
"Very clean and smelled clean. No bedspread on the beds, but who needs those! The man behind the counter was EXCELLENT, helpful and friendly. The only downside is the continental breakfast. It consists of cereal, oatmeal packets, toast and coffee. I have stayed here before and will return again."
